In November 2017 Ofsted reported that: 

• “The Headteacher, leaders and governors are committed to improving pupils’ life chances.”
• “Pupils’ conduct is typically good and they treat one another with respect.”
• “Pupils feel safe and are kept safe”
• “Pupils are well looked after and are provided with the opportunity to succeed”
• “Strong relationships exist between staff and pupils”

 

Employment is with Corvus Learning Trust and not Bracknell Forest Council. The trust is very popular and for most posts a large number of applications are received - it is thus not possible to notify all applicants of the outcome. Please accept that if you have not heard within three weeks of the closing date then, unfortunately, your application has been unsuccessful - in which case we offer our best wishes for the future.

Sandhurst School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. It is essential that all members of staff and volunteers share this commitment. An enhanced DBS disclosure is required for all posts.

We reserve the right to carry out online searches should you be shortlisted for interview. We will ask shortlisted candidates to complete a self-declaration prior to interview.
