Co-op Academy Belle Vue opened in September 2021 as the newest secondary school in the
Co-op Academies Trust, and is built upon the shared values and ‘ways of being’ that underpin all
Co-op Academies ; Be yourself, always - Do what matters most - Show you care - and Succeed
together.
Co-op Academy Belle Vue offers something a little different from other schools, whether that be
the structure of the day, our investment in technology, or our diverse and exciting ‘electives
programme’.
When we opened our doors to our first cohort of staff and students, we welcomed a new
generation of Co-op pioneers, and together we have built something really special. Although the
academy started its life in brand new, custom-built accommodation on the site of Co-op Connell
College, we have now moved into our new state of the art academy building on Hyde Road.
Our new building represents not just bricks and mortar, but an investment in the future of our
students and community. We are excited to offer our students access to the latest resources and
technology, and to provide them with an inspiring and dynamic learning environment. As we join
our new community we will continue to empower our students to think creatively, to collaborate,
and to achieve their full potential. We will strive to foster a culture of excellence and inclusivity,
where every student feels safe, valued and supported
We are a heavily oversubscribed start-up secondary academy with 720 students, we will welcome
another intake of 240 students in September 2025 and we are on our way to becoming a leading
educational establishment with a projected growth to 1200 students. We have been operating to
an outstanding level and are committed to providing our students with the best possible
education. We are the most popular school in East Manchester and on a very special journey.
Cooperation, community, ambition, achievement, respect, responsibility, endeavour, and
enjoyment are all key elements in the role of leading personal development at Co-op Academy
Belle Vue. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work closely with the Academy's
sponsor, The Co-op Group, and to be part of a supportive network of talented colleagues within
the Co-op Academies Trust.
At Co-op Academy Belle Vue, we are committed to creating something special, a culture of high
expectations with the ways of being and our CARE principles at the heart of everything we do.
Our goal is to provide an exceptional educational experience for our students and to foster a
community where everyone feels valued and supported. To achieve this, we are looking for an
expert in this field, someone who will lead and model excellence consistently.
This role offers a chance to work in a supportive and dynamic school environment, where you can
make a real difference to the lives of our students. Co-op Academy Belle Vue is committed to
providing an outstanding education and supportive environment for all students, and the new
Head of Year Protection will be a key member of the team working towards this goal.
If you are a proactive and organised individual with a passion for education, then this could be the
perfect opportunity for you.
As part of the Co-op Academies Trust, we value cooperation, community, ambition, achievement,
responsibility, respect, and enjoyment in all our endeavours. The successful candidate will have
recent experience and evidence of substantial impact on the improvement of a school or academy
in areas relevant to this role.
