Class Teacher job summary
We are looking for someone with a desire to support our Academy in ensuring our pupils reach their potential. You will be dynamic, resilient and motivated with a willingness to uphold our high expectations to secure ‘Outstanding Achievement for All’.
We are seeking to appoint an inspiring and dedicated teacher to join Nigel Bowes Academy – an outstanding special school for pupils aged 5-11 who present predominantly with Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs. A significant number of pupils are also on the Autism spectrum and may have other related needs.
The role requires a proactive and creative approach to developing experiences within our curriculum that will motivate pupils to want to learn beyond the classroom, enhancing cultural capital and providing memorable opportunities that will support them on their journey towards adulthood. The successful candidate will also lead a class of up to 8 pupils, creating a positive learning environment and delivering a high-quality curriculum for those learners.
Experience of working with pupils with special educational needs is desirable, however, we welcome applications from mainstream colleagues who understand the approaches needed to guide our vulnerable young people towards success. We also welcome applications from Early Career Teachers.
What we have to Offer:
- A visible and approachable senior leadership team and an enthusiastic and committed team of teachers and support staff.
- A strong support network both within the school and across Ambitions Academies Trust.
- All staff are part of a professional learning community in which evidence-informed CPD is designed to meet individual needs.
- Strong potential for career progression.
- A culture that respects work-life balance and an ongoing commitment to wellbeing with a dedicated Wellbeing Champion.
- An Employee Assistance Programme including in the moment support and counselling sessions with an external provider.
- AAT Staff benefits include free eye testing for DSE users through Specsavers, free will writing through Dunham McCarthy Solicitors and reduced price corporate gym membership through BH Live.
- A competitive pension through The Local Government Pension Scheme for support staff.
