Female PE Teacher (ECT) job summary
We are looking to appoint a female Early Career Teacher in our PE department to start July 2022 on a 1 year contract. We are seeking someone who will be ambitious for our students, and has a vision for the development of PE in our curriculum. PE sits within the Physical and Creative Arts faculty. It is an exceptionally upbeat and innovative faculty. It is cohesive, team spirited and very well led. We are looking for someone who can play an active role in contributing to the already high standards within the department. Option choices at GCSE and BTEC across the faculty are high with PE’s popularity at Key Stage 4 continuing to increase. The challenge for the successful applicants will be to contribute to further developing an already strong subject and continue to raise standards at KS3, GCSE and BTEC.
The Physical and Creative Arts faculty encompasses PE, Art, Music and Drama and is a leading faculty across both campuses. The Achievement Leader of PCA is talented, enthusiastic, approachable and highly supportive. He works with the faculty to promote collaborative planning, enhance teaching and learning and to drive up standards of achievement and attainment.
90% of the outgoing Year 11 cohort secured 4+ at GCSE/BTEC with over 65% securing 5+. The faculty has a clear focus on developing students' love of learning in the Physical and Creative Arts as well as working on the development of skills and knowledge for the transition of students from Key Stage 3 and into Key Stage 4 ensuring all students are well prepared and successful in their subjects.
The faculty comprises an Achievement Leader working with three Assistant Achievement Leaders and 10 main scale teachers. They are a cohesive team and have a strong command of their subject. PE, and the extracurricular activities offered by the department, are really enjoyed by students.
As a new member of staff you will be well supported: we have a comprehensive induction process, and you will be given an Induction Mentor and a ‘professional buddy’. We have the Investors in People standard, and see professional learning as a major strategic priority.
For the successful candidate, a commitment to raising standards and a passion for developing young adults is essential: this entails a commitment to all learners, to excellence for all, and a belief that a good school makes a significant difference to learners’ life chances, levels of attainment and the well-being of the community as a whole.
