What the school offers its staff
At Howden Junior School and Howden C of E Infant School we provide a friendly, stimulating environment, which allows each child to respond positively to opportunities, challenges and responsibilities. We encourage pupils to work both independently and co-operatively, to think creatively and critically and to solve their own problems.
Within the Education Alliance Multi Academy Trust, there are lots of opportunities for collaboration and also further opportunities to develop and progress. As a trust, we are here to make great schools and happier, stronger communities so that people have better lives. For too long in many schools, staff have been asked to choose between being seen as good at their job and being a good mum, dad, partner, son, daughter or friend. We are doing everything we can to support our staff to balance the demands of their jobs and those at home.
To support this, we:
Trust our staff to plan, prepare and assess at the best time for them, allowing them to go off-site in their PPA
Have centralised our Behaviour Policy so teachers are freed up from supervising detentions
Demand ethical leadership built on professional trust
Reject fads and ensure our CPD is evidence-informed and predominantly subject specific
Have reduced data collections to twice yearly
Do not expect staff to respond to emails outside normal working hours
Do not deploy staff at other Trust schools unless it is at their request
We have removed the following:
Performance management objectives and performance-related pay
Lesson observations and high stakes, toxic accountability
Onerous marking policies
Requirements for daily or weekly lesson plans
Above all, we recognise that seeking to remove the number of tasks staff undertake will have little effect on improving work/home balance if this happens within a toxic culture. To support this, we offer training for our leaders to ensure they are able to translate our values into behaviours which are built on the principles of dignity, respect, professionalism and integrity.
Further information about the job
The candidate will be required to undergo a full enhanced DBS check and must be eligible to work in the UK.
Visas cannot be sponsored.
If you're interested in teaching or training to teach in England as an international citizen, we can help you understand your next steps.

The Education Alliance is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Clearance from the Disclosure and Barring Service will be sought prior to appointment, and we undertake an online check on all shortlisted candidates, in line with the Keeping Children Safe in Education guidance.
