This partnership means that all of our KS3 students will be provided with a musical instrument and taught how to play it in their weekly music lessons. This opportunity is for a flute peripatetic teacher to join us at the launch of this partnership. We’re advertising for a one day a week post but this may expand as the programme expands into KS3.

Pay: To be discussed at interview, in line with Musicians’ Union rates

This could not be a more exciting time to join our school. In April 2026 moved into our brand new school building delivered to us by the Department for Education’s Schools Rebuilding Programme. Phase 2 of that programme has now started involving the demolition of the old school building and conversion of this land to become additional sports grounds for our school. Follow us on our Instagram account to see details of the move and how we’re enjoying our new school building!

We’re a Foundation School in the London Borough of Ealing. Ealing schools have traditionally worked very collaboratively and it is no coincidence that Ealing’s performance in national league tables is strong. Schools in Ealing have come together to form the Ealing Learning Partnership (ELP) in conjunction with the Council. This partnership provides us with a range of networks so that Islip Manor High School staff are able to share and develop ideas and practice with Ealing colleagues across a range of schools.

Our Recruitment Process

One of the Ealing Learning Partnership projects we have been engaged with in the last two years is a ‘No Learner Left Behind’ project to improve the outcomes of our Black Caribbean students. Informed by our work on this project, we conduct an annual analysis of the ethnicity profile of our student body. Our long term aim is to ensure that the profile of our staff group matches that of our students. At the moment, we are underrepresented in the following ethnicity groups: Arab, Asian, Black Caribbean, Black African and Traveller of Irish Heritage. We would therefore welcome applications from candidates who would classify themselves as belonging to these groups.

We are introducing a ‘blind’ selection process this year which we also hope will support us in reducing the risk of any unintended bias during our recruitment process. You will see that our application form is in two parts. Part one, which contains details about candidates’ gender, ethnicity and age, is not shared with the staff who select candidates to bring them forward to the interview stage.

The school is committed to safeguarding children and safer recruitment processes are always robustly followed. Successful candidates’ appointment will be subject to safer recruitment checks and satisfactory completion of an enhanced DBS check. Further information can be found on the government’s Disclosure and Barring Service website.
