My client school is a very large school for girls with a very small number of boys in the sixth form. Over 70% of its students are from minority ethnic groups. The largest ethnic group is Pakistani, which accounts for approximately 44% of students, followed by White British forming approximately 27%. Other ethnic groups each form no more than 6% of the school population. Over half of all students speak English as an additional language and in the sixth form this increases to two thirds. The percentage of students with learning difficulties and/or disabilities is below the national average.

The school is a good school. Despite its size, it maintains a real sense of community. Students are provided with good opportunities to make positive contributions to the school and wider community.

The headteacher sets high expectations and is instrumental in driving the school forward. The school is run by an able, talented and well informed headteacher.

Previous experience working with children is essential. This can include teaching assistant experience, tutoring/youth-work/overseas camp work/local community work. Please ensure this is CLEARLY highlighted on your CV.
