About the College
Brampton College continues to be one of the best performing sixth form colleges in London and has remained at the top of the Department for Education league tables for over twenty years.
As a specialist sixth form college, we provide our students with outstanding teaching and a wide variety of A level options, enabling them to choose subjects that appeal to their interests and fit their skills. This leads to an enthusiastic and dedicated group of young people whose confidence and performance flourishes.
We are proud of the college's continuous tradition of academic excellence. The Principal, John Wilson, appointed in 2023, is only the second person to hold this post in the history of the college, which was founded over thirty years ago. The college is family-owned, not part of a group or trust, and staff enjoy a range of attractive benefits. Small class sizes and a high level of student engagement offer a teaching experience you are unlikely to find elsewhere, and the low level of staff turnover makes the college a very stable environment for all who work here.
We have exceptional amenities, including four recently refurbished laboratories, a stunning art and photography studio and a supervised library for quiet study. Our team of dedicated teachers, enhanced by a group of specialist support staff, allow us to focus on students as individuals to offer a unique and extremely positive educational experience.
There are approximately 230 students on roll each year across three year groups: AS, A2 and one-year A level students, as well as a small GCSE cohort.
What makes working at Brampton special?
Brampton has a uniquely friendly, informal atmosphere and new members of staff can be sure of a warm welcome.
You will enjoy a wide range of benefits (some of which are listed within the job information pack, available on TES), including, importantly, the overall support and encouragement you can expect from your departmental colleagues, SLT and the wider college team.
