Background Information and Introduction from the Headteacher
I am incredibly proud to be leading a committed team of staff in our vibrant, ambitious and progressive community School.
We are characterised by how we treat people. Everything we do is driven by our strategic vision and our ambition to be a beacon of excellence for our students and families. We are research driven and our work is linked to our core values of Ambition, Respect and Belonging. We are passionate about learning and we have a genuine commitment to ensuring our staff have autonomy, within a framework of a respectful, professional environment.
Sir John Thursby Community College is a mixed 11-16, multi-cultural, fully inclusive school which values all students, staff and our community partners. We have over 1,100 students on roll and over 150 staff enjoying working together to provide the best for everyone. In our latest Ofsted report in April 2023, the school was graded 'good' in every area and inspectors commented that the pupils 'enjoy attending this thriving and popular school'.
People and relationships are at the heart of what we do. One of our key values is that all members of our school community are known, valued and loved. We are firmly committed to ensuring that all our staff have a positive work/life balance and we give all our teaching staff a minimum of 20% non-contact time. In our 2025 staff survey, 97% of our staff said they would recommend SJT as a great place to work.
We have a highly ambitious curriculum with over 70% of students following the EBacc subjects. Our results are consistently strong and students make excellent progress from their starting points. Our behaviour system is built around the principles of relational practice and students behave well.
I would encourage you to come and visit SJT to see why we all believe that it is a special place to work. I am always keen to show people around our school so would welcome any contact for an appointment to see us in action.
Mr Matt Renshaw - Headteacher
