Redden Court School, a place where “Pupils are enthusiastic about coming to school to learn.” (OFSTED SEPTEMBER 2016)
Would you like to move your career forward in a friendly environment with eager students and support from an experienced leadership team, in one of the best mixed comprehensive schools for 11-16 in our Local Authority. We are oversubscribed, serve Harold Wood well and we are only twenty minutes from the heart of London.
We invest in our staff to help them to become the best possible teachers they can be. There are excellent opportunities for people who work hard. Effort is often recognised in career development. Many who came to us as NQTs now have substantial leadership roles. Our CPD programme and collegiate approach are highly effective. Staff morale is high and so is that of our students and their community.
Redden Court’s most recent results place us in the top 20% nationally for progress, the top 10% in English and Maths for Progress 8.
Our school mantra is "Committed to Success for All." That includes our staff and we want the very best for our students. Less than a year ago OFSTED said we “have created an inclusive community where pupils and staff relate well to each other. The school is focused on working with families to raise aspirations for pupils.”
If you are an inspiring, inspirational, enthusiastic and innovative leader who recognises that the best leaders continually strive to improve, we would like to hear from you. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a forward thinking school and leadership team. We require an individual who is passionate about inclusive care and has the wellbeing of all students at the forefront of their practice. As the Success for All Educational Trust develops we will also need an individual who is flexible enough to work across the Trust.
The Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) includes Redden Court School, The Royal Liberty School and Sanders School. Inclusion and a commitment to success for all students are at the forefront of the MAT and we provide specific support, tailored to our students’ needs.
Senior ICT Technician
On behalf of the students at Redden Court School, we are seeking someone who can work within a small team that will include a Strategic Network Manager and ICT technician. The successful candidate will have proficiency and experience of both cabled ethranet and wireless networks.
We desire somebody that can work in an environment where there are many demands and we seek a candidate that can prioritise and manage their time effectively. The school has bought into a Bring Your Own Device procedure where many students purchase Chromebooks and knowledge and experience of managing Google policy and understanding of chromebooks would be advantageous.
The school is a very active school where advances in technology and use of ICT are pivotal in ensuring teaching and learning is as effective as it can be. Maintaining hardware and software is a crucial element of the job alongside ensuring the networks are fully functioning and the school can efficiently function with little to no interruption to the delivery of the curriculum.
The successful candidate will be committed to our vision, our values and ethos, and have the interpersonal skills and ability to excel in the role. If you would like to speak to the Network Manager Jerry Green, please feel free to telephone the school.

The protection of our pupils from abuse is the responsibility of all staff within our schools, superseding any other considerations. Therefore Havering Schools comply with the Department for Education ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’ guidance.
It is an offence to apply for a post which involves engaging in regulated activity relevant to children if you are barred from doing so. Please be advised that, again in line with ‘Keeping Children Safe in Education’, shortlisted candidates (who wish to accept an invite to interview) will be required to submit, prior to their interview, a self-declaration of their criminal record or information that would make them unsuitable to work with children. Upon submission of this information, online checks may be carried out.
This post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974; the successful applicant will be expected to undertake an enhanced DBS disclosure check. Having a criminal record will not necessarily debar you from obtaining a position with the School.
