Job Information: I wish my teacher knew...

That I want to be the first person in my family to go to university;

That I don’t have any pencils at home;

That my Sunday league football team reached a cup final on the weekend;

That we’ve had to move home three times this year;

That my dream is to be a fashion designer;

That my family and I live in sheltered accommodation;

That I didn’t have breakfast this morning.

At Harper Bell, we love our children. At Harper Bell, we have teachers who know their children.

Our children are gifted, articulate and caring. Like all children, they need an arm around their shoulder some days and a stern word on others. They need someone to joke with and someone who will encourage and believe in them. They need someone to inspire them and someone who will be inspired by them.

Above all else, our children need someone willing to build a relationship with them from the very beginning.

Could that someone be you?

If you are this teacher, we would love for you to apply!

The Council is a fantastic place to work. You will find an organisation that is both challenging and supportive; with a leadership impatiently adventurous in its pursuit of excellence. 

There is a clear vision which is ensuring that the Council is working for communities today and building for tomorrow, we focus our resources on five key priorities:

  • A Prosperous Birmingham: through a focus on inclusive economic growth, tackling unemployment, attracting inward investment, and maximising the benefits of the Commonwealth Games.
  • An Inclusive Birmingham: through a focus on tackling poverty and inequality, empowering citizens, promoting diversity and civic pride, and supporting and enabling all children and young people to thrive.
  • A Safe Birmingham: through a focus on making the city safer, safeguarding vulnerable citizens, increasing affordable housing, and tackling homelessness.
  • A Healthy Birmingham: through a focus on tackling health inequalities, encouraging physical activity and healthy living, supporting mental health, and improving outcomes for adults with disabilities and older people.
  • A Green Birmingham: through a focus on street cleanliness, improving air quality, continuing the route to net zero, and becoming a city of nature.

We see the Council’s role as providing strategic leadership – that’s being able to visualise a new future for the city and equipping others to share our vision. We want to ensure the provision of services for all, so we can support those least able to support themselves by working with partners and putting citizens and neighbourhoods at the heart of our decision-making.

We are always looking for people who put the customer at the centre of their approach, with a commitment to excellence to help us achieve our vision.  We will support you to develop and thrive in your role, building a pathway for long-term success, with lots of development opportunities, such as apprenticeships.

In return, we offer you excellent terms and conditions, generous annual leave, a great pension scheme, well-being support, annual travel passes and discounts at a number of city centre establishments.
