The Governors of All Saints Catholic High School, Kirkby are seeking to appoint an inspirational,
ambitious and innovative Teacher of Science.

All Saints is a popular and significantly oversubscribed 11 to 18 school in the town of Kirkby and
within the borough of Knowsley. All teaching and non-teaching staff at All Saints are committed
and dedicated, living out the mission of the school - Love and Justice. As a Catholic school we
work to ensure that our pupils receive the best possible education in a caring and loving
environment.

In November 2021, OFSTED judged the school as being Good in all areas.

Our school is ready for the next stage of its journey. In Summer 2024 GCSE and Sixth Form
results continued to improve. Our pupils, parents, staff and wider community deserve the best.
High expectations and aspirations are what we are about. Our school serves a community with
high levels of deprivation and as such our school should be a place offering a warm welcome
and of love.

This is an exciting and unique time to become part of the All Saints family. The school is on an
improvement journey, significantly oversubscribed, financially sound and is ready for its next
stage of development.

All Saints Catholic High School is committed to safeguarding the welfare of children. Disclosure
of any criminal convictions and an enhanced DBS check will be required for this post. It is an
offence to apply for the role if you are barred from engaging in regulated activity relevant to
children. The post may not be exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 as certain
spent convictions and cautions are ‘protected’ and are not subject to disclosure. It is important
that an applicant provides the school with upfront disclosure of all unspent convictions, cautions,
reprimands or warnings. A failure to declare the above (that are not subject to the Disclosure and
Barring Service filtering) may disqualify an applicant for appointment and may result in summary
dismissal if the discrepancy comes to light subsequently.

In addition to the checks set out above, the school reserves the right to obtain such formal or
informal background information about an applicant as is reasonable in the circumstances to
determine whether they are suitable to work at the school. This will include internet and social
media searches and references from current employer or settings where you have worked with
children.

The recruitment process for this post will be underpinned by rigorous safer recruitment
assessment to ensure that children and young people are protected.

We are an Equal Opportunities Employer.

To arrange an informal visit to the school and a meeting with Tony McGuinness, Headteacher at
All Saints Catholic High School please contact Maria McGowan (mmcgowan@allsaintschs.org.uk)
