The city’s children are our inspiration. They are talented, welcoming, diverse and love to learn. Wolverhampton schools aim to provide you with the support and guidance that will allow you to bring out the very best in our young people and help them to achievements beyond their imagination

This is an exciting time to be teaching in Wolverhampton, a city where standards are rising in schools that understand the challenges that the early part of a career or a move to a different part of the country can bring. Higher attainment and good pupil progress that have resulted in a transformed performance record recognised in a sharp rise in the number of schools enjoying positive inspection outcomes have been built upon a collaboration between schools, Trusts, Teaching Schools and the City Council to develop a framework of training opportunities that match the needs of teachers at all stages of their career. Our schools have leaders that have successfully grown their own careers, often in the city, and are keen to support and guide you through each stage of your career

Benefitting from its prime location at the heart of the country with excellent transport links to the UK’s high-speed rail and motorway networks, Wolverhampton is a city on the move. The City Council’s ambitious plans for regeneration are bringing exciting changes to the City Centre whilst reasonable housing costs make it a good place to start or develop a teaching career. The City also offers a wide range of family friendly facilities, with stunning parks and green spaces, Premier League football, all-weather horse racing, and top entertainment attractions such as the iconic Civic and Wulfrun Halls at The Halls Wolverhampton, Wolverhampton Art Gallery and the Grand Theatre, all of which boast the best acts, exhibitions and productions in the business.
