About The Position
Mercia Learning Trust is a successful partnership of four primary and three secondary schools located in the south-west of Sheffield. Established in 2012, with one secondary school, our trust has grown to serving over 5000 pupils, with 650 staff. The trust's mission is to empower everyone in its communities, especially the most disadvantaged, to succeed. Mercia School (11-18) opened in 2018 in a brand-new building with an ambitious vision for the school, aiming for all pupils to thrive and achieve well regardless of their background. The school has a strong reputation for educational excellence and has been the most over-subscribed school in the city for the last three years. In February 2023, Ofsted inspected the school and graded all aspects of provision, and its overall effectiveness, to be ‘Outstanding’. Mercia School published exceptional GCSE results in the summer of 2023, achieving the highest Progress 8 score for disadvantaged pupils, a high-level of performance repeated in 2024. Mercia Collegiate Sixth Form opened in September 2023. As the school continues to grow, it is crucial that we sustain our culture and effectiveness, and this role is central to our continued success. We are seeking to appoint an outstanding individual to work as part of a small administration team that is central to the smooth operation of the school.
