SJH is an excellent school that has improved immensely in recent years and, as a result, has been oversubscribed for the last five years. Our ethos is for our students to strive ‘to greater heights’. This ethos is built on a core set of values, which underpins everything that we do. These are Ambition, Endeavour and Respect.

Our most recent Ofsted inspection was a great success and recognised the commitment of our staff to improving the College and securing the very best outcomes for our students. The College was judged to be ‘Good’ across all areas inspected. Inspectors commented:

“The school has a calm atmosphere where pupils feel safe. Pupils behave well so that learning is not disrupted. Pupils talk positively about their learning”

“Overwhelmingly, positive behaviours and attitudes to learning seen”

“The culture is all about learning, with a strong work ethos”

“Learning is the core of all that happens”

“Leaders provide effective support to develop teachers' subject and pedagogical knowledge. Staff are very positive about the support they receive from leaders. They are proud to work at the school. Those newest to teaching speak particularly highly of the support they receive. Leaders listen carefully to staff. This helps them manage staff well-being and workload.”

We are looking to recruit a Senior Science Technician to support the Science department at the college. The successful candidate will line manage the technician team whilst also providing a first-class technical support service to the science department and develop teaching resources which encourage students to engage with science.

Non-teaching professionals at Sir John Hunt are key to supporting the educational and personal development needs of our students. We pride ourselves on developing both support and teaching staff, with dedicated training days to support their continued professional development.

We welcome applications from highly motivated and experienced individual with the vision and ability to commit towards the team. If you would like to find out more about the College, please visit our website at: http://www.sjhcsc.co.uk/.
