The role and what we are looking for
We are looking for someone to develop and foster trusted relationships and work between school, parents/carers, health services, other education and social care services and the community. This person will have an overview of local community issues and be an advocate for these within the Academy and wider Trust. The successful candidate will be required to complete independent home visits to absent students and their attending alternative provisions.
This role is essential in the development of the Academy as it grows in size, year on year, to eventually house 1500 students.
Our Academy
We are a secondary school in Oldham, Greater Manchester that opened in 2018 and are dedicated to supporting our young people to reach their potential. We leave no child behind; our progress data is incredibly strong and it is attributed to the hard work of our staff and students. We work together, sharing this educational journey with a common goal - develop happy and successful leaders who are culturally enriched role models in our community. Being part of the Oasis Community Learning multi-academy trust, we benefit from support and sharing of best practice from our regional schools, Regional Director and wider Oasis family.
We opened the Academy in temporary accommodation in 2018, with just 230 students across two year groups. In November 2020 we moved into our new, permanent home, which is a state of the art building that sits on the old Breeze Hill School site located on Roxbury Avenue, just off Lees Road in Oldham. We will be at full capacity, with 1500 students, by 2025-2026. We are a school of choice within Oldham and rated ‘Good’ by Ofsted.
