We place significant emphasis on working collegiately as a school to share our expertise and subsequently enhance the learning experience with our students. Every member of the staff is involved in a variety of professional learning programmes that take place across the academic year.

We can offer a very good opportunity to develop your career working within a forward looking and very supportive pastoral team. The ability to converse at ease and provide advice and information in accurate spoken English is essential for this post.

Kingsthorpe College is an oversubscribed 11-18 Academy with approximately 1400 students on roll (200 students Post-16). We were graded by Ofsted as Good in all areas in December 2019, and we are now looking forward to the next stage of our journey from good to great. In September 2021, we joined Orbis Education Trust, and this has unlocked further possibilities for colleagues to develop, progress, and make a significant contribution to inspiring the students within our schools. We therefore believe it is an exciting time to join #TeamKC and be part of a community, which is resolute in its drive to help our students leave with the confidence and skills to be able to take part in the great conversations of our times. Kingsthorpe is on a journey to world-class status. Please look at our website https://www.kingsthorpecollege.org.uk for a comprehensive view of our school.
