The
Alec Reed Academy is an Ofsted ‘Good’ school and an exciting place to work. In
July 2018 it received praise from Ofsted who described it as ‘at the
heart of its community, an inclusive school with leadership providing excellent
role models and maintaining the good quality of education since the last
inspection in 2015’.
We are currently looking to appoint a
Librarianto join our team of specialists: HLTA, Coordinator for Literacy,
EAL Coordinator, Curriculum Leader for English & Literacy and Assistant
Principal in charge of Teaching and Learning.
ARA has a newly reinvented library that
has been in operation for the past year which is at the heart of our school.
Because we subscribe to the substantive body of evidence that comments on the
emotional and social consequences of reading for pleasure, as well as the
academic success associated with reading for pleasure (Clark and Rumbold, 2006)
which even outstrips a child’s socio-economic status (OECD, 2002), we see the
library as a space that plays an integral part in the lives of the children in
our care. With substantial new
investment, the reinvention of our library has created an opportunity for a
creative, organised and enthusiastic individual to build on the early success
ensuring it becomes a valued, pivotal part of our students’ learning journey.
It
is essential that applicants have practical experience of working in a library in an educational setting,
experience of computerised Library Management Systems, experience in
communicating and networking with a range of stakeholders; and experience of
working with young people. A qualified (ideally Chartered) status would be
desirable but not essential, as is experience in holding extra-curricular clubs
and activities that promote reading.
The
working hours are Monday to Friday from 8am to 4.30pm totalling 39 hours per
week on a term-time only basis plus professional development days. Flexibility
is expected in order to support after school events such as open evenings and
if we have authors in. The salary range for the role is £21,000 to £24,000 per
annum (this has already been pro-rated).
