Career Opportunities at Blenheim High School

 

 

 

Vacancies (both teaching and non teaching) available at Blenheim will be included on this website via the links on the menu bar. The school is a lively and successful place and visitors to the school constantly remark on the warm and friendly atmosphere and the prospectus will give you some idea of what the school is about.

We make no apology for some of our traditional elements - extremely high expectations of the students, strict school uniform, orderly classrooms, regular homework and a wealth of clubs and activities and we complement these with first class resources, energetic, enthusiastic teachers and support staff who involve themselves in every aspect of school life.

We believe we have some excellent features including:-

  • An Induction Programme for Staff which has been praised by Ofsted and IIP.

  • A very good Ofsted Report

  • Investors in People re-accreditation

  • Supportive Governing Body

  • Supportive parents

  • A Home and School Partnership Agreement, signed by parents, students and staff before admission

  • Target setting in every subject area.

  • After school homework facility.  Students may elect to stay behind until 4.30pm.  The school day finishes at 3.05 p.m. Students take a 10 minutes break, then the Learning Resources Centre is open for use.  A Librarian is available and the duty teacher and an ICT Co-ordinator monitor students’ use of the technology and other first class resources available for information retrieval.

  • A bell free environment - the only alarm you would ever hear would be for fire.  Lesson changeover is calmer than many schools.

  • Excellent modern facilities including purpose built science laboratories, technology rooms, sports hall, music rooms and general classrooms.

  • A club-sized Astroturf for football and hockey with floodlights.

  • An 18 acre site with ample facilities for all sports.

  • A breakfast facility.  The school is open to students at 8.15 a.m. when breakfast is served - traditional English breakfast as well as cereal and toast prove popular.  Currently between 25% and 30% of our students use the facility.
