Coloma Convent Girls’ School in Shirley is recognised as one of the top non-selective secondary schools in the country. We are consistently oversubscribed and a very popular choice within the borough and other local boroughs. In October 2019 Coloma received its fifth ‘Outstanding’ Diocesan Inspection report and in 2021 was named ‘Best School in Croydon’ in the Real Schools Guide.

Coloma was ranked 2nd in the best girls’ comprehensive category and 39th in the best comprehensive school category.

We are seeking a dynamic and committed Teacher to become Head of Year 7 and Transition. The Head of Year 7 plays a crucial role in providing pastoral care and support to students transitioning into secondary education. As well as supporting student welfare, and collaborating with teaching staff to ensure the overall well-being and academic success of Year 7 students.

Coloma is very proud of its history of academic achievement; this is due to the hard work, focus and dedication of staff and pupils which permeates the ethos that is Coloma. In 2023 we achieved remarkable exam results with a provisional Progress 8 score of +0.79 at GCSE and 85.2% A* to C grade for A Level students and 100% pass or higher for BTEC.

We value excellent relationships within a caring community. Extra-curricular activities play a huge part in the life and success of the school and pastoral systems are extremely strong.

We Offer

  • A community which is on a rapid journey of improvement with a genuine commitment to being even better.
  • A school with a strong commitment to your professional development.
  • A working environment focused on Teaching and Learning and raising standards for all.
  • The opportunity to work in a team where your skills, enthusiasm and hard work will be appreciated.
  • The opportunity to work within the largest cosmopolitan centre outside of Central London, undergoing substantial redevelopment, growth and change.
  • A school that invests in enrichment and extra-curricular activities.

We welcome applications from colleagues who are supportive of the values of a Catholic School. Many of our staff are members of religious faiths other than Catholic and make an enormous contribution to the well-being of our students.
