The Schools of King Edward VI in Birmingham
Birmingham, UK
The mission of the King Edward VI Foundation (the “Foundation”) is to make Birmingham the best place to be educated in the UK. A progressive, influential educational charity, King Edward VI Foundation’s reputation is underpinned by a long and distinguished history. King Edward’s School was established in 1552 by King Edward VI, part of the early growth of secular education in England. In the late 19th century, our five grammar schools and King Edward VI High School for Girls were an early step in extending secondary education for girls and boys.
The 21st century has brought the formation of the King Edward VI Academy Trust, a means of expanding from our original five grammar schools to a current family of eleven academies and two independent schools. Six of the academies are selective; five are comprehensive, some serving Birmingham’s most deprived communities. To serve the city’s children, we recognise that we need to provide a diverse range of schools: independent as well as Academies, selective and also comprehensive. And we believe that those schools need to be accessible to all, regardless of ethnic, religious and social background.
The further development of digital practices and use of technology is integral to the above, and the purpose of this role is to nurture and support this development via the organisation’s Single Central Enterprise Platform (SCEP), among other priorities.

Who are we? Common sense says that the less someone drives, the less driving should cost them. And we agree. But back in 2018, the car insurance industry didn't see it like that. So, we launched the UK's first real-time pay-by-mile policies. Since then, we've had our members covered for a massive 500 million miles of driving. It's been an epic journey (which is a bit ironic, since we're helping people who don't use their cars so much). Along the way, we've gone from plucky newcomers, to being voted Best Car Insurance Provider 3 times in a row. Though we're still very much doing things in our own, unique way - we're now backed by Direct Line Group (alongside some of the country's best known brands) What we believe in. We challenge with kindness, making sure everyone feels safe and included. We support each other. We take time to learn so that we can improve ourselves, our colleagues and our products. We're not afraid to make mistakes if it gives us the opportunity to grow. We're clear in our vision. We're happy to challenge the status quo if it will help us make things better. We own up, we don't blame. We're humble enough to take feedback on board, and respectful enough to give it. The next big idea could come from anywhere, so everyone's opinion matters. We consider before we start, whether that's interrogating details to save confusion down the line, or getting help from others. We make decisions using data, not opinions, and we use our time wisely, always staying focused on the end goal.
