St Anne's Catholic School and Sixth Form College

St Anne's Catholic School and Sixth Form College We are an 11-18 Catholic girls school with a mixed sixth form in the heart of Southampton.

St Anne’s is a highly successful school with a strong moral purpose: to work together to strive to be the best that we can be. Our Catholic ethos, girls’ school status at Key Stages 3 and 4 and our mixed Sixth Form College make us hard to beat as the best place to educate the region’s girls from 11 to 18 and boys 16 to 18. GCSE results in 2015 placed St Anne’s in the top 1% of schools nationally for the progress girls make from Key Stage 2 to 4, which is an excellent achievement. 78% of our girls achieved 5 A* to C grades including English and Maths which placed St Anne’s in the top 100 schools for sustained improvement in attainment and prompted a letter of congratulations from Nick Gibb, Minister for Schools. Our A Level results were similarly impressive, particularly in terms of the progress made by students from GCSE to A Level, making St Anne’s the second most successful 6th Form College in the Southampton, Portsmouth and Hampshire area. The achievements of our girls are top class and we are convinced that the distinctive experience St Anne’s offers, supports and challenges students to achieve even more than they thought was possible.

📚 We’re recruiting: Second in English

Are you an excellent English teacher ready to take the next step in your career?

We’re looking for a talented and ambitious colleague to join our highly successful English department as Second in English — a substantial leadership role with real opportunity to influence curriculum, teaching and learning, and the progress of pupils across the department.

English at St Anne’s is ambitious, creative and much more than examination preparation. From our work with the RSC and National Theatre to Poetry By Heart, university lectures, writing competitions and theatre visits, we want our pupils to encounter English as a subject of ideas, language, literature and voice.

If you’re a strong classroom practitioner who is ready to help lead others — and would like to work in a school where professional trust, ambition and community matter — we’d love to hear from you.

📅 Closing date: 6 October 2026 at noon
📍 St Anne’s Catholic School & Sixth Form College, Southampton
✨ MPR/UPR + TLR 2b | Full-time | January 2027 start

There’s more to school than what happens in the classroom. 💙

Our Co-Curricular Fair gave students the chance to discover clubs, activities and opportunities to try something new, develop their talents and get involved in school life.

Choosing a Sixth Form is a big decision — and sometimes the best way to know whether somewhere is right for you is simply to come and see it.

Join us for our Sixth Form Open Evening on Wednesday 7 October, 6pm–8pm.

Come and see the Sixth Form. Meet the teachers who would actually teach you. Talk to our students. Ask about the subjects you’re considering, university and career pathways, enrichment and leadership — and ask the questions that matter to you.

Most importantly, get a feel for the place.

At St Anne’s, we offer something genuinely distinctive: academic excellence with personal attention; high expectations with personalised support; and a Sixth Form where every student is known and every ambition matters.

Be a name, not a number.
Be who you are. Become exceptional.

📍 Everyone is welcome — no booking required.
