• Contribute to embedding our shared vision and ethos across all aspects of college life

• Ensure students are well supported to develop the knowledge, resilience, and behaviours required to thrive-even in the face of challenge

The City of Leicester College is a thriving and vibrant 11-19 multicultural college with approximately 1,500 students on roll, including a highly successful Sixth Form. Despite being one of the largest schools in the city, we maintain a strong sense of community and place a high priority on the wellbeing of both staff and students.

In recent years, we have undergone significant transformation to place ambition at the heart of everything we do. Enhancements to our curriculum, behaviour systems and personal development programmes have led to the strongest examination results in our history. Our recent Ofsted inspection recognised the college as being "Strong" in six of the seven judgement areas, reflecting the significant improvements made across the school and our continued ambition for excellence.

At The City of Leicester College, we pride ourselves on being a forward thinking, inclusive, and ambitious community. As a member of our team, you will benefit from:

• A stimulating and rewarding inner city environment, serving a diverse, multi cultural and multi faith community
• A school with genuine ambition, where we are committed to improving life chances for every young person we serve
• A supportive induction programme, ensuring you feel welcomed, prepared and confident in your role
• A fantastic, well-resourced and inspiring learning environment, designed to support excellent teaching and learning
• Committed, enthusiastic and creative staff and students, who work together to achieve exceptional outcomes
• A friendly, collaborative and supportive working culture, where staff teamwork and collective success are highly valued
• Access to high quality technology and digital resources to support your work effectively
