What the school offers its staff
Up Holland High School is a happy and harmonious place to be where students are highly motivated and have the opportunity to be inspired and succeed. We were recognised in May 2023 by Ofsted as ‘Good’ in all areas of school, with the capacity to improve still further. We believe that our strong collaboration with students, staff, parent/carers and governors continues to contribute towards the success of the school. This is the third successive ‘Good’ judgment the school has secured. The school aspires to move from ‘Good’ to ‘Great’ and we are seeking a professional that shares that level of ambition, a professional that can model our Dedication to Excellence in all that they do.
We consider the education of our students to be about developing the whole child, preparing them for life beyond school. Not only providing them with a good level of attainment in examination subjects but also helping them to develop the skills, values and attributes which will enable them to be strong, successful citizens when they move on from Up Holland, ready to contribute to their local community and the wider world. This philosophy is captured in our vision statement.
Commitment to safeguarding

Successful applicants will need to undertake a DBS enhanced clearance, including checks with past employers. Please note that in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education online searches will be carried out as part of our due diligence on shortlisted candidates.
