Moorside High School

We are delighted that you are looking to apply for a role at Moorside High School. It is a fantastic school and a great place to work. I am extremely privileged to lead an inspired team of staff who are dedicated to the education of our 1200 students. We are a school where we get the balance right between academic progress, pastoral support, and the wider curriculum enrichment.

Our vision articulates the things that we put importance on and encapsulates the school’s CARE values of Consideration, Aspiration, Resilience and Equality.

Moorside High School is a proud member of Consilium Academies Trust, a family of nine schools throughout the North of England. As part of this family, we work collaboratively with a focus on ‘Enriching Lives and Inspiring Ambitions’ of all the children who attend our schools.

We are very proud of our inclusive ethos, and our core purpose, ‘To ensure every student leaves us ready for their next successful chapter, with students attending university or starting a fulfilling career.’

In March 2022, we were judged by Ofsted to be ‘Good’ which is testament to the hard work and dedication of the staff and students. As Moorside High School continues to grow and develops as part of the Trust, this appointment will play an integral part in shaping the future of our school.

Our website and this application summary can only give you a flavour of who we are, but I hope that it will inspire you to apply for the role.  If you have any questions or need any further information about this fantastic opportunity, please do not hesitate to contact us.
