The Elton High School is a significantly oversubscribed school with a tradition of excellence. We have a history of high achievement, and our most recent Ofsted inspection reflects this. The inspection (February 2022) reiterated the strengths that had been confirmed in the previous report (2017) and are firmly embedded across our school. The inspection team noted that ‘pupils are proud to attend’ Elton with an established culture of ‘high aspirations for what pupils can achieve’. Our students achieve well, with the inspectors being particularly impressed with the climate for learning and behaviour of our students their ‘positive behaviour at all times is characteristic of the respectful culture of this school [and] their positive conduct reflects leaders’ high standards’.
The success of our school is built on the work of our high-quality staff. We have a strong system of staff training in place aimed at developing the very best practice, with a constant focus on ensuring that all of our team feel supported to give of their best and to have a work life balance. We pride ourselves on taking a proactive approach to promoting the well-being of everyone in our school community and consistently review opportunities to further promote staff well-being. Initiatives include a half termly Golden Week (no meetings scheduled), Staff Wellbeing Committee and an annual Well-being Day for every member of staff.
This is a fantastic opportunity to play a key role in building on the successes of recent years. Our ‘Elton Way’ motto of Ambition-Resilience-Kindness permeates all that we do, and the successful candidate will present a clear way forward for the school to continue its strong development. They will join a strong team of PE teachers and a department with a culture of high expectations and excellent extra-curricular engagement.
