The governors of this highly successful and oversubscribed school seek to appoint an enthusiastic, inspirational and talented leader of Computing Science who has experience of teaching GCSE Computing Science. This is an opportunity to lead a small, yet very successful, department,  working in a school with exceptional staff and students, great facilities and high academic standards. 

St Francis is part of the Nicholas Postgate Catholic Academy Trust (NPCAT), a family of 38 schools and a sixth form from across the north of the Diocese of Middlesbrough. With 12,300 pupils and 1,500 staff, the Trust is now one of the North East’s and the UK’s largest Catholic Multi Academy Trusts. 

The school is consistently amongst the highest performing in the country in terms of progress and currently has the top Progress 8 of all schools in North Yorkshire. The last Ofsted Inspection highlighted the following:

The exemplary behaviour of students makes an exceptional contribution to learning and is supportive of all. Behaviour is outstanding and reflects the school’s values.

SFX is an aspirational school where attainment is well above the national average. Pupils in all groups make outstanding progress from their various starting points.

Please note you do not need to be a regular attender at Church but you do need to be happy to support the Christian ethos of the school.

St Francis Xavier School is a joint RC/CE 11-16 Mixed Comprehensive serving the picturesque market town of  Richmond and the surrounding rural area. We are located close to the A1 and A66 and in commutable distance from York, Durham and Teesside. The school has an excellent reputation in the local community.
