“Yardleys School is a unique and special place.” *

Yardleys is a thriving, vibrant and heavily oversubscribed 11 to 16 multi-ethnic academy in Birmingham, with 947 students on roll. The diversity of the school population reflects the rich, cultural mix of the local area.

The school is highly focused on raising standards of pupil achievement through a broad and balanced curriculum and students make excellent progress from their starting points.

The school motto “Working together for a better future” is far more than just words. The collaborative ethos which permeates the school is at the heart of our success. Excellent student behaviour and an extremely well organised school provide the foundation for teachers to focus on delivering outstanding lessons and continuously improving their practice.

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join our support staff team. The successful applicant will provide organisational, administrative and diary management to the Headteacher. This will include routine and more complex word processing, spreadsheets, databases and Powerpoint.

You will need to be educated to at least GCSE standard or equivalent and experience in a similar role would be desirable. Experience of working in a school is not essential, but an enthusiasm for working with young people is vital.

You will need to demonstrate the highest standards of accuracy and literacy, both verbal and written, as well as the ability to work independently in a very busy environment and deal with conflicting demands on your time.

Yardleys offers a commitment to professional development opportunities, a keen eye on staff workload, an excellent induction programme, a healthcare package, an annual individual wellbeing day, state of the art facilities and well-behaved students who are keen to learn.

“Leaders care deeply about staff. They are mindful of well-being and workload, and staff feel valued and appreciated.” *

This post is covered by Part 7 of the Immigration Act (2016) and therefore the ability to speak fluent and spoken English is an essential requirement for this role.
