At NewVIc we are committed to enhancing the lives of our students through excellent education and learning. Each and every one of our students has the potential to be extraordinary and the opportunities we provide are clearly focused on their futures.

We are looking for an inspirational individual to join our team as the Director of Quality to drive excellence across all aspects of our college curriculum. You will have experience of promoting and implementing a total quality management strategy as well as a forward-thinking approach to driving improvements in post-16 education.

As our new Director of Quality, you will play a key role in ensuring our college is always on an upward trajectory, consistently elevating standards, outcomes and the overall experience for our students.

Thank you for your interest in our Director of Quality role.

We are very excited about the future and we hope the information we have provided gives you a clear sense of these excellent opportunities which will enable you to make a significant leadership contribution to the success of our college and our students.

NewVIc is a longstanding part of the Newham community. Situated on a single-site campus in Plaistow, it is one of the largest sixth form colleges in London. We have a clear vision and strategy to deliver outstanding education and training, and to deliver on our commitment to excellence, we need to ensure the college is making a significant contribution to leading and delivering skills and driving economic impact across the communities we serve.

Our biggest strength is our diversity. Our staff and students are a reflection of the world we live in and represent the broadest range of social and cultural backgrounds. Fiercely inclusive and integrated, we welcome and celebrate differences in our opinions, experiences and perspectives.

We offer a wide range of courses, from Entry Level through to Level 3 including academic and vocational programmes. We are committed to playing an active and vital role in the area’s enhancement and economy by promoting social mobility and preparing students for life in modern Britain. As a result, NewVIc has a fantastic history of students progressing on to further study, employment or university, including to some of the top universities in the country. The college also has a track record of successful enrolment and is graded financially ‘outstanding’ by the ESFA.

However, the college is not without its challenges. Together, we will need to refocus our efforts on the student experience and strengthening relationships with staff to help ensure a successful Ofsted inspection, which is due in the near future. Although our finances are very strong, this post has arisen as a result of a restructure and the need to change our culture.
