This is an exciting opportunity for a suitably experienced Site Manager.
Rhyddings is seeking to appoint a highly motived and dedicated Site Manager to support our school.

The school was redeveloped in 2021 with many new and specialised facilities. The existing buildings have also been significantly refurbished through dedicated Condition Improvement Funding bids. These include new fire safety doors throughout, boiler replacement, solar installation and a full site heating distribution system.
We have 3 exterior blocks of specialist provision in Performing Arts, Science, Technology and Humanities. External spaces are large hard surfaces and playing fields are adjacent to school. Off-site we have the pavilion building at The Heys playing fields just minutes away by car.

At Rhyddings we continue to work hard to prepare the young people we serve and help them realise and reach their potential, providing them with the very best educational experiences. We are also part of a group of founding schools in Hyndburn to form the LET multi-academy trust (MAT), within Hyndburn, with a neighbouring high school and two primary schools.
Pupils are well supported through our Pastoral Year and House Continent system, with year group tutoring further supporting the child. This provides the care and guidance pupils need to perform well across the curriculum as well as healthy competition throughout the year.
