What skills and experience we're looking for

ob overview

We are seeking to appoint an Assistant Curriculum Lead for Girls PE to join our team of committed staff who share a common sense of purpose and high expectations of what students can achieve. This role is expected to start in September 2024.

Main purpose of the job:

This is a middle management post. In addition to those professional responsibilities which are common to all classroom teachers in the school, the post holder’s key responsibilities will be for supporting the Curriculum Leader in raising the standards of teaching, learning and student achievement in the subject area for all students.

The post holder will also deputise for the Curriculum Leader when necessary and will take responsibility for areas of departmental work as agreed with the Curriculum Leader and Senior Leader.

• believe that economic disadvantage is a compelling reason to raise expectations rather than a reason to lower them, and will do everything in their power to help our students achieve their full potential;
• ensure that students experience an educational programme that is personalised to their particular needs, as identified through a robust assessment system;
• promote an ethos of teamwork and a culture of sharing, motivating colleagues and ensuring effective professional and working relationships;
