Your Role

Thank you for your interest in the post of Premises Manager at Walton-le-Dale. I am delighted that you are considering joining our school and becoming part of a community that truly values its staff and students.

 

Walton-le-Dale is a smaller secondary school, and this gives us a distinctive and welcoming atmosphere. Visitors often comment on the warmth and friendliness of the school, and it’s something we take great pride in. Our size allows us to know our students well as individuals and to tailor our support to meet their unique needs. This approach is central to our ethos, and we are proud to hold Flagship status for the Inclusion Mark, a recognition we have maintained since 2008.

 

Our student-centred philosophy underpins everything we do. While academic achievement is vital, we believe that education should also help young people develop into confident, responsible, and compassionate individuals. Strong relationships are at the heart of our school community, and it is through these relationships that we help our students achieve their best, both in and beyond the classroom.

 

The vision for Walton-le-Dale High School has been designed to focus on three pillars:

 

·        Sense of Belonging (BELONG)

Celebrating our school’s heritage and community roots whilst fostering a strong sense of belonging and identity for every student.

 

·        Opportunities for everyone (EXPLORE)

Ensuring equitable access to enriching experiences that develop talents, broaden horizons, and prepare students for future success.

 

·        Aiming for excellence (EXCEL)

Establishing high expectations and ambitious standards across all aspects of school life, empowering students to exceed their potential.



We are now looking for a passionate and dynamic Premises Manager to join us in shaping the next chapter of our school’s success. If you have the energy, vision, and determination to make a real difference, I would love to hear from you.

 

If you would like to hear further from our staff at Walton-le-dale as to why you should join our team, I would urge you to view our recruitment video on https://wldhigh.co.uk/staff
