The College is a wonderful and vibrant place to work. It offers outstanding education to students aged 16-19 and we are dedicated to the pursuit of quality in teaching and learning and to the achievement of high standards in everything that we do. The College is currently in the middle of a digital innovation strategy with all teachers and approximately a third of students in possession of an iPad. It is our aim that within the next 18 months all students will be using an iPad as a core resource for their learning.

So what can the College offer to you? Because we know that our staff members are passionate about education, learning and self-development, as a new teacher to the College you will have the opportunity to develop professionally through a programme of training developed both in-house and through external agencies.

The key to the success of SFX are its staff and the positive relationships we have with our learners.

Progression opportunities exist across the College; much of this is designed to develop young talent to achieve their potential over time.

Staff Development & Induction Programme for NQTs and ECTs

College Principal Graham Thompson puts staff development to the fore of his strategic planning, so that teaching and learning is developed through in-house training alongside partnerships with external agencies. Participation and collaboration are core values and expected behaviours of staff at St Francis Xavier: every employee is a source of new ideas, useful insights and feedback. We are a highly skilled, outward-looking community who engage deeply with pedagogical research, while also being keen to learn from each other.

Our induction programme for ECTs is run in conjunction with Wandle Teaching School Hub, who provide training and act as the Appropriate Body. ECTs are supported by a dedicated mentor and complete a two-year statutory induction, including topics such as safeguarding, equality & diversity, behaviour for learning, assessment for learning strategies and the use of data to drive progress. Secondary School work experience is usually arranged for two weeks in the summer term of an ECT’s second year. Teachers who have completed a post-compulsory PCET also receive a mentor for their first year and are supported to achieve QTLS. All induction activities are overseen by Head of CPD, Tom Spindler.

The college is committed to developing talent and helping colleagues achieve their career ambitions.  According to our most recent Ofsted report, “Staff feel well cared for and support leaders in the promotion of a culture of continuous improvement”. Feedback is regularly sought from colleagues using the TES Staff Pulse survey: the average scores given in response to questions concerning goal setting and support are both significantly above national averages. Reflecting at the end of their induction period, one ECT commented “I have excellent support from colleagues, my mentor and induction tutor”. When surveyed about the effectiveness of INSET sessions, staff overwhelmingly report that their training has had a positive impact on their practice.

All new staff are assigned a buddy in order to help them integrate into the college. The sharing of materials and ideas is standard amongst teaching staff: resources are easily accessible on site or remotely through Google Drive. As part of our digital innovation strategy, the college provides all teachers with an iPad and colleagues are encouraged to research innovative digital tools which can further increase learner engagement and continue to improve outcomes for all students.  A culture of pedagogical exploration is fostered through opportunities for open exchanges of teaching strategies and meaningful feedback conversations, with the needs of our learners at the centre of everything that we do. We invest heavily in our staff, because we know they are key to the continued success of St Francis Xavier Sixth Form College.
