We were judged “Good with Outstanding Catholic Life and Mission” by the Catholic Schools Inspectorate in March 2025. This is a fantastic opportunity to join our College making substantial progress under current leadership. In turn, we are looking for a candidate committed to playing a part in transforming the lives of our young people.

All Saints is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Therefore, we expect all workers, volunteers and employees to share this commitment. All appointments are subject to satisfactory pre-employment checks, including a satisfactory Enhanced Criminal Record with Barred List check through the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). It is an offence to apply for the role if an applicant is barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to children (where the role involves this type of regulated activity). A conviction may not exclude candidates from appointment but will be considered as part of the recruitment process. Due to the number of application forms we receive, we regret we can only contact the shortlisted candidates.
