Welcome from the Principal

Thank you for your interest in Hills Road Sixth Form College and in this post. We really hope that the information on this recruitment portal will support you in making an application and will provide all you need for deciding whether our College is right for your next step. We hope it is!

Choosing an institution where you find a fit in terms of ethos and values is hugely important. Hills Road Sixth Form College enjoys a strong national reputation, having topped Sixth Form College performance league tables for outcomes since their inception over twenty-five years ago. But that doesn’t mean we are complacent. We still want to evaluate and improve the ways in which we work with young people to get the best for them and from them, whatever that might take.

We are therefore looking for a colleague to join us who shares that drive towards excellent outcomes. Everything we achieve relies on the quality and commitment of our staff team, whatever their role in the College. We are keen to recruit colleagues for whom excellence comes as standard. We also want you to continue to grow professionally while you are with us and will explore with you ways in which we can support that development.

As a busy, vibrant community of over 2,650 young people, there’s always a great deal going on and lots to be part of and take part in. Extra-curricular opportunities abound and we hope you will want to get involved with the extraordinary range of activities that is on offer. We have an on-site sports centre, including a fully equipped gym, plus squash and tennis courts, to which all staff have free membership and our staff wellbeing programme includes access to on-site talking therapy, fitness and relaxation sessions. If you would like to talk through a prospective application or to explore the College’s ethos and values a little more, please don’t hesitate to make contact for an informal chat.

Finally, I do appreciate the time commitment involved in completing a job application and, if you do decide to apply, can I thank you for the investment of time you have chosen to make. Whatever the outcome, can I wish you all the very best with your future career, wherever that may be.

With very best wishes

Jo Trump
