Kingston upon Hull is an authority committed to raising standards and promoting an achievement culture. Kingston upon Hull is a unitary authority created in April 1996 with 15 secondary schools, 78 primary schools and 4 special schools serving a population of 268.000 people.
There is clear evidence that the rate of improvement at all Key stages indicates that we are one of the most improving LEAs in the country. That is why dedicated teachers with determination, drive and enthusiasm are actively encouraged to apply for jobs in Hull.
Teachers in Hull are valued as educators and professionals. The LEA has an excellent induction package, aimed at providing support and development for NQTs and continual professional development opportunities are available to all staff throughout their teaching careers. Kingston upon Hull is also a great place to live and work with excellent theatres, shopping, museums and many new developments. These include The Deep: a spectacular multi million pound learning and business centre; the £30 millions super stadium and the Ferensway redevelopment: a new, city centre shopping area.
