We believe that a great education is one that empowers people to embrace the challenges and opportunities ahead with capability and confidence; one that enables people to make a difference in an uncertain but exciting future.

We live this every day, with excellent teaching, a wide co-curricular offering and exceptional pastoral support. As an accredited Round Square school, we are able to tap into an international network of educators, helping us to deliver a world-class approach to character education, leadership and enabling our students to develop a global mindset.

We are proud not just of the superb examination results our students achieve, but of the many ways they contribute, whether it is performing on stage, on the sports pitch, in service of others, or elsewhere - there is no typical AKS student.

We are fortunate to be set in a stunning beach-front location on the Fylde coast, in wonderful buildings with fantastic facilities. The magic, though, is in the close community of the school: amongst its students, teachers, parents and support staff, there is a real and tangible warmth, where people are known and supported, challenged and cared for every day.

AKS is part of United Learning, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life-changing education to children and young people across England. United Learning is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All positions are subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and shortlisted candidates will be subject to an online check.

We always appoint on merit, and we are open to discussing flexible working options.
