Careers Development Co-ordinator (CEIAG)

We are a very popular and successful Church of England Academy of 1,760 students (335 in the Sixth Form). Our students progress onto world-class universities and institutions to further study or gain apprenticeships and employment. Our aim is to fulfil individual potential and prepare pupils for life in a rapidly changing world by providing an excellent education within a Christian environment. Canon Slade School is a member of the Bishop Fraser Trust, a C of E multi academy trust established in 2017. This is an exciting time to join us as it provides a great opportunity to work closely with the other three High Schools in the MAT - St James's C of E High School, Bolton St Catherine's Academy and Bury C of E High School; sharing good practice and building on our ongoing progress.
