At Quarrydale  we recognise that our greatest asset is our staff. We are keen to appoint inspirational, influential and effective staff who will join us in supporting our students through their Quarrydale  journey.

We appreciate that if staff are to be effective practitioners over a sustained period of time, school leaders need to provide them with the professional development opportunities both in and out of school. We want our staff team to be highly motivated and feel valued for their hard work and commitment to our students’ education.

In order to help our staff have the best possible experience and achieve a real work-life balance, we have put into place a range of measures to benefit both our teaching and support staff colleagues. Theses can be divided into the following categories:

• Professional development
• Well-being
• Staff discounts and entitlements

What kind of people are we looking for?

• First and foremost, staff at Quarrydale must like working with children and be good at it;
• Staff must be highly skilled in the role they are applying for or else willing and able to learn in post;
• Staff must show a passion for education and improving the life chances of students;
• Staff should be willing to contribute to the wider life of the school (running clubs, attending events);
• Staff should be highly motivated, like working as part of a team and possess excellent communication skills;
• Staff must hold appropriate qualifications for the role you are applying for.

All staff and students are extremely proud of the school and the high expectations that are insisted on that help instil a culture of high aspiration and hard work equalling success. The school would be delighted to hear from applicants who share the vision and values that have led to the school being so successful to date.
