What skills and experience we're looking for
The Role
An exciting opportunity has arisen at The Colne Community School and College for a Teacher of Girls’ Pe to join our Physical Education Faculty for a period of maternity leave.
Our school is a community in which we believe everyone, students and staff alike, should have the opportunity to be nourished and grow. Therefore, we are seeking to recruit a proactive and forward-thinking member of staff to enrich the skills and experience already present in our Physical Education Faculty. We aim to foster an inclusive culture where everyone is able to learn from each other. The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic, confident and diligent.
The Colne Community School and College is a member of the Sigma Trust. The Sigma Trust’s mission is to be ‘Greater Than the Sum of Its Parts’ and this is certainly a message that The Colne invests in too. We work closely with other schools within the Trust to improve standards and ensure that we are creating the best environment for our students to learn and our staff to develop.
Our school community is expanding which makes this a particularly unique and exciting time to join our team. We have a new teaching block consisting of 8 new classrooms and 4 specialist Design and Technology rooms fully equipped. A further large scale internal refurbishment took place over the 2022/23 academic year which has improved our school environment for all.
Our ARK values of Aspiration, Resilience and Kindness describe the ethos that flows through our school. We expect all members of staff to feed into our values and lead by example to our students. We believe that every member of staff has the potential to impact on student experience and therefore we encourage our staff, both teaching and support, to immerse themselves in our school culture.
Applications from outstanding professionals who believe they can contribute to our school community are greatly welcomed. If you are willing to invest in us, we will invest in you which we believe makes the experience at The Colne especially exciting.
- This is a part time (60% FTE) maternity cover post, fixed term until 31st December 2025.
