The post is being advertised with a closing date of 17th December 2024; however, we would like potential applicants to apply as soon as possible and reserve the right to withdraw the advert should we interview and appoint a suitable candidate earlier than the advertised closing date or extend the closing date should there not be a suitable pool of candidates by this date.
The leadership of the academy is completely determined to create an environment in which teachers can get on with their core role: delivering excellent lessons. To this end, the student behaviour system is clear and simple and easy to administer in lessons. If action is needed beyond these simple steps, the pastoral and senior teams take all the burden away from the teachers, conducting detentions, following up and dealing with parents on your behalf. Teachers at the academy speak of this as one of the major benefits of working here. In addition to this, teachers are trusted to be professionals through:
- Ongoing professional training and development as well as networking opportunities throughout the United Learning Multi Academy Trust.
- For applicants who aspire to enter the teaching profession, opportunities are available through the United Learning Multi Academy Trust.
- A competitive salary, an on-site fitness centre, a commitment to your personal development and a flexible benefit scheme.
- A genuine ‘flexi-working’ approach with at least one opportunity a week to come in late or leave early for every teaching member of staff
