Head of Character and Culture job summary

Acle Academy is a thriving secondary school for 11-16 year olds located in the heart of the Broadland area only 12 miles from the centre of Norwich and was graded Ofsted Good in February 2022. We strive to create well-rounded, responsible individuals who seize opportunities, discover their passions and love to learn throughout life. Acle Academy has a strong academic record and a reputation for providing high quality pastoral care.

Our Character and Culture curriculum is at the heart of our whole school ethos and encompasses Religious Studies, PSHE and Citizenship. Character and Culture education at Acle Academy gives pupils the knowledge, skills, and attributes they need to keep themselves healthy and safe and to prepare them for life and work in modern Britain. Character and Culture is a subject through which pupils develop the knowledge, skills and attributes they need to manage their lives, now and in the future in an ever-changing society, to think critically and to reflect on their own morals and ethical viewpoints.

Our Character and Culture curriculum is part of our strong Humanities Faculty and includes a Character and Culture specialist teacher who leads on whole school Personal Development. The curriculum is well resourced and was recently praised by Ofsted, “Leaders prepare pupils well to engage with the changing, modern world. Pupils learn about healthy relationships and discuss issues such as consent thoughtfully. Pupils get wide-ranging and balanced careers guidance for their next steps.”

This is a unique and exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic colleague to join a motivated and united team of teachers. The successful candidate will be required to teach Character and Culture at Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 and Religious Studies at Key Stage 3. Start date to commence from January 2025.

Are you:

  • enthusiastic about your subject?
  • a dedicated and imaginative practitioner, who is passionate about teaching and learning?
  • someone who has high aspirations for students, and can contribute new and innovative ideas to curriculum and extracurricular developments?
