The Friary School is part of the Primitas Learning Partnership and is a popular and respected Lichfield secondary school which caters for well over a thousand local students. It is amongst the most over-subscribed schools in South Staffordshire. The school was judged ‘good’ by OFSTED (March 2024) and performs strongly in the national Performance Tables. The OFSTED Report celebrated extensive changes to school practice, highlighting “a culture of high aspiration” alongside “abundant energy and enthusiasm,” and recognized that we are a “rapidly improving school” with an “unwavering commitment to helping all pupils achieve highly.”
Even so, the school is far from settled on ‘good’ and has put an action plan in place designed to propel the school to the ’outstanding’ benchmark and keep it there. This emphasis is not on simply ticking off an OFSTED badge but more importantly delivering an excellent education for the families of Lichfield and the surrounding area.
We are seeking to appoint an outstanding Teacher of History who is passionate about helping our students succeed and grow as individuals. The successful candidate will be a team player who is committed to ensuring that teaching and learning is the very best it can be.
