Greenhead College is located on an attractive campus close to Huddersfield town centre, adjacent to the picturesque Greenhead Park. The College is a short drive from the M62 and within walking distance of the train and bus station, an easy commute from much of the Northwest and Yorkshire.
The College has been providing the highest quality academic Sixth Form College education in the area for 50 years. According to Government performance tables, Greenhead is currently one of the best performing Sixth Form Colleges nationally and is heavily oversubscribed.
Approximately 2750 students attend the College studying predominantly A Level courses across 35 subjects, and the College has ambition to grow to at least 2800 students by 2025-26.
In March 2022, the College was once again graded ‘Outstanding’ by Ofsted, with no areas of weakness identified.
The College is a great place to work, with a warm, inclusive atmosphere existing between students and staff. Our staff are recognised for their hard work and are encouraged to inspire each another, and to develop and grow. We are proud to have a strong and able College Leadership Team, and a highly experienced Board, who work collaboratively to deliver the College’s purpose and principles, and strategic priorities.
This is an exciting time to be joining Greenhead College. We were one of only 50 schools and colleges nationally to be granted a multi-million-pound funding to build a new four-storey science block, which opened in November 2023. The final building work and landscaping is ongoing but will be completed by August 2025. The College has ambitious plans for future growth and development on its estate on site.
