Associate Assistant Principal - Humanities job summary

We are looking for an inspirational senior leader to join our team. A key element of the role will be the oversight of the humanities department, an area that has shown a rapid improvement in the quality of teaching and curriculum in recent years. We are looking for somebody with a proven track record of leading improvement in outcomes, curriculum and teaching.

The post would suit somebody who is ambitious and sees their next role as either a headteacher or deputy headteacher. We have the highest expectations for all of our students and colleagues and we hope that this role will be a perfect match for somebody who shares our aspirations. Please contact the school if you would like a visit or a conversation with the Principal, Steve Margetts.

Torquay Academy’s results have improved dramatically over the past few years thanks to our brilliant teachers. This has resulted in us being a heavily oversubscribed school. We know that the results can improve further and we are looking for people who are committed, passionate and highly motivated to join our team.

We know that a world class school can only be built by having the very best teachers. We invest in all of our staff and you will be working with colleagues who share a passion for teaching. If you join us you will be signing up to the belief that “everyone succeeds” and that “every student who joins Torquay Academy is capable of going on to university”. It is important you share our goals and values

We believe in strong discipline and support teachers with a strong pastoral team and centralised behaviour systems. We work hard to reduce unnecessary workload so that our teachers can focus on teaching great lessons. We invest in the professional development of all of our staff through 1-to-1 coaching, leadership development and high quality CPD.
