St Mary's RC High School

Hereford

An exciting opportunity has arisen to work as a Teacher of Science at our ‘outstanding’ secondary school. St Mary’s RC High School is a highly successful 11-16 mixed comprehensive school with a very strong Catholic ethos. Our number on roll is 750, of which approximately 50% are baptized Catholics, the remainder of the pupils are of other faiths whose parents want them to experience a Catholic based Christian education. St Mary’s is a very popular school locally; our reputation for enabling pupils to achieve outcomes and make outstanding progress within a caring community, means we are oversubscribed. In our most recent Ofsted inspection in December 2024, we retained our Outstanding status with the inspection team, highlighting the ‘high expectations’ we set for our pupils, their ‘strong behaviour rooted in the school’s values’, and achievement which ‘by the end of Year 11 is very high for pupils overall’. Similarly, our attendance figures gained us national accreditation for 2023/24 with the FFT National School Attendance Award, for the top 10% of all secondary schools in England. Our Section 48 Inspection in March 2019 rated St Mary’s as ‘Excellent’ for all key judgements. The school is a truly cohesive community which reflects Gospel values and pupils feel highly valued for everything they achieve. Working at St Mary’s represents a wonderful opportunity to teach within a close knit and thriving community which enjoys considerable support from our parent body and strategic steer from governors. Our collective determination to sustain the high standards we have set for ourselves is evident in all that we do. Any colleagues joining our staff team would be well supported on a daily basis, but also via a culture showing good practice across the school. Teaching and learning is vibrant, we push ourselves and each other to be as good as we can possibly be. Our school is set in beautiful surroundings in Lugwardine, just three miles outside of the city of Hereford. We are blessed with lovely grounds, which includes a stunning purpose-built chapel and picturesque rural views. Our pupils come from all over the county to St Mary’s and every year we have an extensive waiting list for places in year 7. We aim to give our pupils a rich and diverse extra-curricular and enrichment diet, to complement their academic learning, and as such our children enjoy a range of sports, activities, clubs, trips and pilgrimages. Working at St Mary’s offers a good quality of life in a highly professional, ambitious and caring Catholic community. We look forward to meeting and welcoming colleagues interested in joining our staff team and committed to giving our pupils the best possible education.
