Recruitment and Selection policy

What we are looking for from Candidates

At Bolton Islamic Girls School we want people who want more than just a job. Teaching for us is a vocation and many of the support staff share a similar attitude too. We want to work with people who enjoy working with and for young people. Our pupils are well behaved and this allows new staff to develop their craft and focus on learning as opposed to behaviour management.

“Pupils feel happy and safe at Bolton Islamic Girls School. They are very supportive of each other. Pupils who spoke with inspectors said that staff look after them well. They trust staff to help them with any worries they may have”(Ofsted, July 2021)

Naturally, we expect excellent subject knowledge and relevant experience but we are looking for more than that. We want to make the learning explicit, fun and challenging for all. New colleagues must want to become part of the family culture that exists in our school, to participate in the life of the school and embrace our spiritual nature and core values. We want emotional intelligent and resilient teachers who are not afraid of trying new things and have a genuine commitment to continuous professional development, whatever the role.

“Teachers have strong subject knowledge. Some have high-level qualifications in their subject. They present pupils’ learning clearly. As a result, pupils build their knowledge effectively and achieve well”  (Ofsted, July 2021)

We are looking for staff that see themselves as leaders, have empowerment and do not just rely on a hierarchical system. More than anything we want people who understand the importance of our motto and supports us in ensuring opportunity is given for all students to Achieve Academic and Moral Excellence.

“Pupils make every effort to realise leaders’ ambitions for them to become proud, British, Muslim young women. They work hard, developing confidence and self-assurance”. (Ofsted, July 2021)

We are graded Good by Ofsted and by working together we can achieve the best for our young people, our staff and our community. At BIGS we don’t just offer the pupils the chance to be the best they can be, it applies to each and every one of us.
