Are you an enthusiastic and determined teacher with a passion for their subject? The ability to enthuse and engage students? The dedication, commitment, and openness to strategies to raise attainment at Key Stage 4 and 5? Are you excited about the opportunity to work with our committed and enthusiastic Key Stage 3 students within the Science curriculum? Then Ashby School is the place for you!
We are seeking to appoint a motivated and dedicated Physicist with a passion for their subject and the ability to inspire and motivate students at all Key Stages. Physics is a popular subject at Ashby School with large numbers of students choosing the subject at A-level.
The Science Faculty has suites of purpose built and well-resourced laboratories both on the KS4 site and in our recently renovated KS5 site. We also have access to a state of the art immersive learning hub enabling us to enhance understanding and promote creativity in learning. Ashby School is part of the Life MAT and we benefit from collaborative working across all of the MAT schools with an extensive programme of CPD. We are a fantastic team of positive, friendly and highly supportive teachers and technicians who strive to create the very best possible learning experience for our students.
Ashby School is a thriving, successful and over-subscribed 11-19 Academy with over 1,600 students on roll including 500 in Ashby Sixth form. Conveniently located close to the M42 and M1, within easy reach of several areas of outstanding natural beauty and with the national forest on the doorstep, the school is set in its own attractive grounds in the expanding market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire.
The post offers an exceptional opportunity for either an experienced teacher looking for a new challenge, or an individual new to the profession seeking to grow their pedagogy in a student and staff centred Academy. We offer an excellent Continued Professional Development programme within a supportive environment and are committed to continuous improvement in both teaching and learning. The post could be extended or enhanced for an appropriately experienced candidate.
