St Michael's is a great place to work, but don't just take our word for it...
- St Michael's is an excellent school because of the transformational impact it has on pupils, families, staff and an extended community _(Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools: December 2019).
- St Michael's is an oversubscribed, good school: "Pupils are proud to attend this school and rightly so. Leaders’ high expectations, together with the school’s Christian ethos, have created a culture of mutual respect. Staff work hard to ensure that pupils feel safe and are successful in all aspects of school life. Pupils appreciate the time and effort they are given'. _(Ofsted: January 2023).

**Closing Date: Friday 15th March 2024**

**Interview date: To be confirmed**

St Michael's Church of England High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and, as such, expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

St Michael’s Church of England High School is a significantly oversubscribed 11-16 mixed comprehensive secondary school, based in Rowley Regis, Sandwell. We are a local authority, voluntary aided (VA) school and we educate over 1,200 students. As a VA school, the governing board is integral to ensuring continuous improvement for all staff and students; their mission is to:

- To provide effective challenge, rigour and strategic support to St Michael’s to live the Christian Vision, ensuring all students and staff are able to flourish and achieve their full potential._

Highly effective governance and leadership ensure the continuity of a clear and ambitious vision for providing high quality, inclusive education for all, encompassed within our Christian vision and values. We are proud that the Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools judged St Michael's to be an excellent school. At St Michael's, we aim to show love, care and kindness to all in our community. We value what we have and share with others, and we aim to enable everyone to achieve their full potential.

In 2023, Ofsted again judged our school to be Good, particularly at a time when the benchmark for ‘Good’ is at the highest level it has ever been. Ofsted recognised a plethora of strengths, including our high expectations, Christian ethos, culture of mutual respect, provision for pupils’ wider personal development, PSCE, and prioritisation of reading strategies to ensure pupils catch-up and safeguarding provision. At St Michael’s, the impact of the quality of education is underpinned by an ambitious and effectively structured curriculum. Ofsted recognised that lessons are structured effectively. Teachers model tasks skilfully, and they are adept in the way they implement the curriculum. Additionally, teachers make good use of different forms of assessment to check what pupils know and understand. As a result, teachers quickly spot where pupils may need additional help.

St Michael’s has been on a transformational journey; our key performance indicators demonstrated that our inclining performance trajectory continued through 2020 and 2021 with unvalidated teacher assessed grades (TAGs) and centre assessed grades (CAGs).** **In 2022, our progress 8 score of +0.55 is in the top 10% of all secondary schools nationally. In particular, disadvantaged students, students with special educational needs and children looked after significantly outperform both similar students nationally as well as their national comparator.

We enjoy working and learning in a beautiful building with state-of-the-art facilities, including three multi use games areas; sports fields; a sports hall; a gym; a dance studio; a drama theatre; a spacious Learning Resource Centre; design and technology rooms; computer suites; food and tê
