Contract: Permanent, Full time
It is a really exciting time in the academy’s development as we look to expand our provision, enhance the curriculum offer and build a reputation as the alternative provider of choice in the county. We have made some really exciting appointments where recruitment presents it challenges and we are now looking to offer a full -time permanent contract for a teacher to join our academy.
We are looking to recruit an experienced and inspiring teacher to join our academy to teach maths to pupils in KS3 and KS4. The staffing teams are small compared to mainstream schools and the post will suit a teacher who is willing to be flexible to meet the needs of the pupils and the academy. Both secondary Chesterfield sites will have approximately 110 pupils on roll that are not all on site at the same time and classes sizes are small with around 10 pupils. You will be an allocated form tutor.
We welcome applications from candidates who are able to teach engaging and inspiring lessons to challenging and disengaged KS3 and 4 pupils.
Applicants should have good knowledge and experience of working with disaffected pupils in a school or other alternative setting. An affinity for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity. Applicants should be resilient, have high expectations, and a sense of humour. You must be able to build positive relationships with our pupils and think outside of the box. You will be responsible for contributing to a small staffing team to ensure that the site runs smoothly. A growth mindset and positive ethos are essential characteristics that we are looking for.
An allocated base will be named for payment of mileage and any travel calculation between sites for CPD or for engaging in off -site rewards trips etc. Candidates must have access to a vehicle and car insurance with business use included. Staff members may be asked to transport pupils in our academy.
