Welcome to Stanley High School, part of the Southport Learning Trust.
We are a values-led school. Our mission is to ensure that every Stanley High School student is given the best opportunity and support to realise their full potential and develop those skills and qualities needed to make good choices and go on to lead happy and successful lives.
Everything we do here is guided by our school motto ‘Success for All’ and underpinned by our key values of Aspire, Challenge, Excel. We are ambitious for our students and want them to present themselves proudly and confidently. We also encourage them to challenge themselves and be determined to succeed. This is so they can excel by being well-rounded, caring and respectful young adults who know how to get the best out of themselves and others they encounter.
Staff here understand the importance of creating a school culture that is friendly and supportive, and which fosters a sense of ambition while celebrating the achievement of all. We aim to nurture in all students a lifelong love of learning and an understanding that everyone can fulfil their ambitions regardless of how wide the gap between starting points and desired destinations may seem. The successful candidate will play an active role in realising this by modelling and upholding high expectations and high standards at all times.
On a day-to-day basis, we are committed to providing excellent teaching, a broad curriculum and wonderful pastoral care for each individual student. We understand the that our staff are our best resource, and we are committed to investing in them and their professional development to ensure that our students have the best experience we can offer. Staff here are specialists in their areas and are further developed through bespoke CPD opportunities as well as access to professional training programmes and qualifications.
Student experience is also prioritised outside of the classroom. At Stanley, we have a variety of extra and co-curricular events and activities that take place regularly throughout the year and staff are always willing to go the extra mile to put on trips, clubs and shows aimed at supporting, stretching and challenging students in their thinking. Our sporting prowess in particular knows no bounds and our students are as dedicated to us in their representation in matches against other schools as we are to them each day.
If successful, you will be joining the Southport Learning Trust; a family of eight schools which includes six secondary schools and two primary schools in the locality where you would gain support from a wider group of senior leaders. Schools in our Trust include Birkdale High School, Bedford Primary School, Greenbank High School, Kew Woods Primary School, Maghull High School, Meols Cop High School, Range High School and, of course, Stanley High School. Being part of a Trust will give you the opportunity to share and be involved in developing practice across multiple schools. You would benefit from an excellent Employee Assistance Programme and a commitment to your well-being and professional development.
