Description 'New leaders have begun to transform the culture of the school' (Ofsted Nov 2024) so come and join us on our transformative journey. Serving the bustling city of Sheffield, Outwood Academy City was constructed in 2011 with state-of-the-art facilities and joined Outwood Grange Academies Trust three years later. The school has undergone a huge transformation for its 1200 students, with an innovative curriculum and a personalised approach to learning, enabling our young people to realise their vocational, practical, creative and academic abilities. 'Pupils learn an ambitious curriculum that the school has carefully sequenced' (Ofsted Nov 2024) to ensure that we give our young people the best chance to succeed. Our students are a really special group of young people, and they are at the heart of everything we do. Alongside our ambitious curriculum, and, as a result of 'high-quality pastoral care, pupils at Outwood Academy City are safe and well-cared for' (Ofsted Nov 2024). Come and take a look at what we offer, and see if you could be a part of our team - WeAreCity and we are striving for excellence. Will you join us?
