**Location: Derby Cathedral School**

**Hours: Full-time - 37 hours although a job share may be considered.**
**Cover required from 8.00am to 4.00pm (Monday to Friday).**
**Contract type: Permanent**

A fantastic opportunity for an experienced School Receptionist to join Derby Cathedral School as it continues to grow in terms of numbers and success.

An 11 - 19 secondary school which opened in September 2018, was established by Derby Diocesan Academy Trust (DDAT) and Derby Cathedral to help meet the need for additional high-quality secondary places in the Derby area. The school has had a successful start and is currently over-subscribed for every year group. We currently have 900 students from Years 7 to 11 and will be opening a sixth form provision in September 2023.

Derby Cathedral School is the first ever Church of England Secondary school in the Diocese and after being in our temporary school for the first three years, moved to our new state-of-the-art building in September 2021. This is located close to the city centre.

The school equips students with skills and qualifications that will enable them to access high-quality careers in and around the city of Derby and beyond and was recently awarded a rating of "good" following our first Ofsted inspection.

The curriculum offer is broad and balanced and is enhanced by strong links with the Cathedral. The curriculum and our character values, based on the acronym FAITH, are a key part of the school vision and represent a platform from which we build high levels of personal development, well-being and achievement from Year 7 onwards.

**Location**:
Just on the edge of the beautiful Peak District National Park, Derby is just 15 minutes from the M1 junction 24 and accessible via the A6, A50, A38 and A52. With a variety of family friendly amenities in the city and quick and easy access to the surrounding countryside, Derby is ideally placed and identified as one of the top places to live in the UK.

Our brand-new site within the City Centre provides abundant parking and a new, modern working environment.

**Start Date**: ASAP following completion of pre-employment checks.
DDAT welcomes a diverse population of both children and staff and is committed to promoting and developing equality of opportunity in all its functions.

The possession of a criminal record will not necessarily prevent an applicant from obtaining this post, as all cases are judged individually according to the nature of the role and information provided.

Please note if any of the above mandatory fields are left blank the form will be returned.

**Interviews will be held on w/c 24th April 2023.
