As an Academy with a Christian Ethos we believe that everyone is made in the image of God. This means that each person has incredible potential, creativity and capacity for good. This role will require someone with passion for helping our students achieve their personal best; someone who can show high levels of adaptability, maintain high levels of professionalism, good humour, a willingness to make a good impression and take part in the full range of Academy life.

Further information is available in the job description.

  • Cycle to work scheme
  • Funded eye tests and glasses for DSE users (subject to T/Cs)

Bede Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment. Where the post is engaged in regulated activity, and/or an opportunity for contact with children the position will be subject to an enhanced DBS check.

Bede Academy has a non denominational Christian ethos and welcomes staff and students of all faiths and none, whilst building on clear core values. We value every student as made in the image of God with vast potential, and seek to help them all to achieve their personal best in every area. Much more important to us than academic success is a student’s development as a young man or women.
