Dear Prospective Candidate

Thank you for your interest in this fantastic new job. There is no doubt that this post will be hugely rewarding for the right person, maybe that is you?

At Jack Hunt School, we have done a huge amount of work to ensure that behaviour and pastoral care has rapidly improved over the last few years. We have a Deputy Head for this part of the school, leading group of excellent Assistant Headteachers. We also have a very talented group of Assistant Headteachers focussing on Quality of Education, however we need to bolster leadership in this area, hence this new post.

At Jack Hunt School, we have a strong ethos centred on the belief that every student has the right to a first class education, and we consistently promote high expectations for all our students.

We want all our learners to leave JHS well educated; of good character; and ready for ambitious next steps.

Our core values are:

• Hard Work

• Integrity

• Kindness

Jack Hunt School is a vibrant place of learning, underpinned by expert teaching of a challenging and broad curriculum. We provide high levels of pastoral care and support, as well as a comprehensive PSHE programme. We think that enrichment opportunities are important for all students, and our offer in this area is extensive.

We believe in high standards of behaviour and conduct, and our academy is a happy and calm place to learn. We are a diverse and inclusive academy, and we are committed to comprehensive education.

Academic success is very important to us, and we have a strong track record. Our students achieve well and many progress into our successful and flourishing Sixth Form. Our students have strong destinations after leaving Jack Hunt School. However, academic success is only part of our purpose. We also provide excellence in music, drama, sport, and the arts and we value all practical and creative pursuits.

We also develop the qualities that are important in any young person such as selfreliance, courtesy, respect, initiative, and determination.

I very much look forward to receiving your application.
