Grade/Scale: MPS/UPS +SEN1 Actual Salary £28,000 to £43,685 +£2,384

Start date: ASAP/September 2023

Contract: Permanent, Full time


We are looking to recruit an experienced and inspiring teacher to join our academy to teach English at the Hasland site. This site teaches to KS3 and KS4 pupils. The staffing teams are small compared to mainstream schools and the post will suit teachers who will take ownership of their subject and are willing to be flexible to meet the needs of the pupils and the academy. The Hasland site currently has approximately 100 pupils on roll. Classes have around 10 pupils and you may be involved with delivering education to pupil’s homes. We deliver GCSE, entry level and are increasingly offering Functional Skills.

A role may be created at a new 4th site when this is sourced. We can discuss further during informal discussions prior to application.

We welcome applications from candidates who are able to teach engaging and inspiring lessons to challenging and disengaged KS3 and 4 pupils. This is an English teaching position however, the ability to have a second subject may be an advantage.

What the school offers its staff

This post will be based at the Hasland site for mileage purposes, however there may be some teaching in off- site location and as we have more than one site, there may be travel for CPD and meetings. We must ensure that we meet the needs of our pupils and where there is demand for places. Teaching may also take place in pupil’s home or other venues and so this role may be peripatetic at times. Candidates must have access to a vehicle and car insurance with business use included.


Benefits include: Teachers’ Pension Scheme, Westfield Health membership, academy laptop.

For further information please contact the Headteacher (jdix@nedsc.derbyshire.sch.uk) or visit our website at https://www.esteemmat.co.uk/vacancies. Please contact the Headteacher to discuss your experience before arranging any site visits. Use the relevant application form on the MAT website; CVs alone will not be accepted.

Closing date for applications: 07 May 2023 (23:59)

The North East Derbyshire Support Centre provides programmes of education to pupils identified as being at risk of exclusion, or who have already been permanently excluded from mainstream education. We meet the varied and complex needs of children in Key Stages 2, 3 and 4, at three sites located in Chesterfield and in the High Peak.

We are looking to recruit an experienced professional to join our academy to support our vulnerable pupils who are on roll at the High Peak site to engage in bespoke education programmes at off -site locations. These pupils may require bespoke packages as they are not yet group or school site ready. You may also be required to take pupils to visit other off site alternative provisions and transport pupils to site if they make progress to be able to engage in on site learning. This new role is available due to an increase in pupil numbers across the academy. This role will involve lone working.

Pupils may be permanently excluded or at risk of permanent exclusion from mainstream and therefore often require additional support to keep them as safe as possible and to help them re-engage in education. Pupils at our Hasland and High Peak sites are in KS3 and KS4 and may be with us for limited time before they re-integrate back into a mainstream school. Others may require more substantial support to help them progress socially and emotionally sufficiently enough to engage in learning. The successful candidate will be required to offer support by delivering off -site peripatetic education to pupils in their homes or other suitable public venues. The core skills of english and maths along with PSHRE will be the focus.

Mileage is paid for, and applicants are therefore required to have access to transport and business use included on their car insurance.

Every child deserves an education. Our primary aim is to support and re-engage young people, enabling them to think positively about their future pathway, and life after the Support Centre, whether that be re-integration into mainstream, further education or employment. Our Vision: "Inspire, Achieve, Exceed"

Our Pupils will:

• Feel safe, valued and trusted
• Recognise and achieve their full potential
• Take responsibility for their behaviour, and make healthy lifestyle choices
• Be positive about themselves and their future
• Be tolerant of others, and of the beliefs and views of others
• Be successful learners, both independently and when working with others
• Be self-motivated and have high expectations

We will achieve this by:

• Creating a safe learning environment, free of stigma and negativity
• Celebrating the success and achievements of every member of the learning community
• Establishing nurturing and supportive relationships between staff and pupils
• Setting high expectations for behaviour and academic success
• Providing a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum that provides the skills, confidence and qualifications to access opportunities in life
• Innovating learning, to engage and inspire
• Promoting tolerance and mutual respect
• Providing opportunities for students, parents and carers to voice opinions which form part of the decision-making process
• Providing an inclusive programme of learning opportunities and experiences that promote engagement

Further information about our Support Centre can be found on the website at www.nedsc.derbyshire.sch.uk
