There has never been a better time to work at BMGS than now. This is no ordinary school. We are a lovely school with a genuine ‘feel good factor’ throughout. BMGS is an ambitious and caring community, committed to fulfilling the gifts of each student, reflected in the School’s mission statement. Our mission is summed up by 3 words, Success for All, which underpin what we’re all about.
We had an Ofsted visit in Dec 2022 and school has been judged Requires Improvement. The new Ofsted framework emphasise more on a rich and varied curriculum and how it is taught than pupil progress and attainment in GCSEs. Regardless of current Ofsted grading of Requires Improvement, the school has continued to maintain its ranking in the top 20% nationally for Progress 8. The school’s GCSE results have been top of the borough for the last five consecutive years. The school has a track record of sustainable school improvements, and are looking to strengthen our team in the future.
Bolton Muslim Girls’ School is always over-subscribed with first choice applications. To meet with the growing demands for places and due to school’s popularity as a high achieving school. We have gone through a rapid expansion in terms of our curriculum , estate and pupil numbers. We have upgraded our facilities on the second and third floor of the Mill to create diverse spaces for Design & Technology, Art, Food Technology, RS, changing facilities for P.E., Music, Computing, Electronics, Resistant Material, textile and open space for Assemblies/Exams/Events, These provisions have significantly enhanced the learning environment for our students. The school currently have 750 pupils on roll. It is an exciting time at Bolton Muslim Girls’ School. The increased pupil population and expansion of curriculum has generated more career opportunities for staff through the review of the current curriculum and staffing structure.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone wishing to further develop their career and join a passionate department that aim to provide a positive learning experience for their students.
