What skills and experience we're looking for

This post could suit an ECT as well as a more experienced applicant. Recruitment incentives could be available.

The successful candidate will join a hardworking, forward thinking and supportive department. We value both academic A-levels and applied courses. Whilst we are currently seeing a growing uptake in all three sciences at A-Level we also have strong links with the local Primary Schools which brings the opportunity to be involved in our Primary Science Events. We have a strong focus on STEM within the school and a passion across these areas would be an advantage.

We are able to consider any science specialism.

Our ideal candidate will:

• be passionate about teaching science and committed to achieving excellent results for their students.

• demonstrate high levels of ambition and optimism regarding what the academy and its students can achieve
• have the resolve to make a real difference to the lives of pupils
• be committed to the Academy’s ethos of high expectations with no excuses
• be flexible in their ability to teach across the sciences
• be prepared to undertake some small group or 1:1 work and occasional cover in emergency situations

What the school offers its staff

The Elizabethan Academy is a successful 11-19 stand-alone academy. Students and staff benefit from excellent facilities in our modern and purpose-built school. We are looking to recruit a Teacher of Science to share our commitment and determination to providing a learning environment that enables all young people to thrive.

We have all-encompassing professional development opportunities with a structured path to enable career progression. This includes secondments at other schools in the East Midlands and staff coaching. We are also a “Brilliant School” and have recently been awarded the Wellbeing Award for Schools. Our succession planning strategy seeks to provide a variety of leadership opportunities from temporary projects to secondments. We have some exciting opportunities arising to start in September which the successful candidate could apply for.

The Academy also has an off-site alternate provision centre at the beautiful Idle Valley Nature reserve which could provide the successful candidate with an exciting opportunity to be involved in something a little bit different.

The Academy is committed to equality of experience for all staff and students. We operate safer recruitment, robust child protection procedures and require evidence of DBS clearance for all employees. Checks will also be made with previous employers.

Commitment to safeguarding

This information is required, including that related to warnings regarded as "spent" in order for the Academy to ensure safe recruitment and meet its obligations to safeguard children. However, you should be aware that any disciplinary history declared will not automatically prevent or inhibit appointment and will depend on the dates and circumstances related to the disciplinary action, outcomes and the type of post being applied for. Note that you are also required to include information if you were subject to a disciplinary process but resigned before it was completed.
