In Ofsted inspections in 2016 and 2021, the College was judged ‘Outstanding’ in every area of the Inspection Framework. Under the current framework, where an overall ‘Outstanding’ grade is no longer awarded, we are immensely proud that our March 2026 inspection identified areas of exceptional practice, further strengthening our reputation for excellence. We remain fully committed to continually raising academic standards and attainment through a broad, ambitious and inclusive curriculum.
Wright Robinson College is committed to staff development and if you join our team, you will be based in a friendly and supportive school with a state-of-the-art building, providing access to the latest resources to facilitate learning. As well as offering you a competitive salary and access to our BUPA Employee Assistance Programme, which provides all of our staff with access to free counselling and a 24/7 health line, you will be provided with free access to on-site gym facilities, swimming pool and free on-site parking. Located on the east side of Manchester, we are easily accessible through local and regional transport links.
