Waverley School is an all-through school for students aged 4 to 19. It also has a Resource Base for students with cognition and learning difficulties. In its recent Ofsted inspection in September 2021, Waverley School was graded as a ‘Good’ School. The secondary phase of Waverley School has 1174 students including those in the Sixth Form. We have state-of-the-art facilities for learning, teaching and training and a strong staff team that is committed to the learning and development of all our students. Our core values of Humanity, Equality, Aspiration and Respect support our vision to create a learning community where we work together to achieve excellence in everything we do. “Pupils have a strong understanding of diversity, respect and tolerance, including for different family lifestyles” – Ofsted 2021. We believe that this role will appeal to ambitious, talented teachers who want to make a positive contribution to our students’ educational experience.
