The University Academy Long Sutton is a popular 11 - 16 Academy in the rural market town of Long Sutton, and is part of The University of Lincoln Academy Trust. This may bring the opportunity to work across 2 sites.
We are looking to appoint a dynamic Teacher of Science who is able to inspire pupils, be innovative and achieve outstanding results. This is an ideal and exciting opportunity for both newly qualified and more experienced teachers. The Academy provides extensive opportunities for Professional Development including links to LTSA, LLP and GPTSA which would particularly benefit newly qualified teachers and those wishing to progress to management. Indeed, a TLR might be available for a suitably experienced candidate. We will accept applicants from all disciplines within Science, but the expectation will be that the candidates teach combined Sciences.
The Science Department has had significant investment over recent years and is supported by a dedicated Technician. The Department is well resourced and laptops are provided to all staff. KS3 pupils follow an inspiring two-year practical course leading to Combined or Triple Science in KS4. There has been a significant investment over the summer of 2021 on new texts both at KS3 and KS4 including an e-learning package. During the summer of 2022, a programme of full refurbishment of all laboratory’s commenced and is due to be completed early autumn of this year. The Academy Trust was also successful in a bid for a whole school re-build and the process of this has already started.
