Living and Working in Yorkshire

  • A local economy valued at £12 billion. Ten million visitors a year. A compelling blend of city and stunning countryside. The youngest district in the UK, with nearly a third of the population aged under 20, Bradford was identified as the most improved city in the PriceWaterhouseCooper’s Good Growth 2019 index.

    Surrounded by charming Airedale countryside and wild moorland, Bradford has a lot to offer those who love the great outdoors. And there are several national parks on your doorstep, like the Yorkshire Dales National Park with the Peak District National Park and even the Lake District close enough for a day trip or a long weekend.

    Candidates with young families are well catered for by diverse local amenities and a raft of excellent schools – there were 46 schools rated Outstanding in the Bradford District as of 2023/2024.

    The popular and beautiful spa towns of Harrogate and Ilkley, as well as the historic market towns of Skipton and Horsforth and countless other attractive towns and villages are easily commutable.

    For those more interested in city life there is Bradford City Centre, currently undergoing a major urban redevelopment, and the vibrant neighbouring cities of Leeds and Manchester are just a short train ride away.

    And as Bradford gears up for an exciting 2025 as UK City of Culture, it’s an exciting time to join us

As a new Headteacher to Bradford the HR support available to me has been excellent. Nothing is too much trouble. All my queries have been answered very quickly, effectively and efficiently.
