TEACHER OF HISTORY - FULL TIME
PERMANENT FROM 1st SEPTEMBER 2020
We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic teacher of History to deliver high quality lessons across the key stages from September 2020. If you are an excellent classroom practitioner, who is flexible, dedicated and passionate about delivering exceptional learning experiences, then we want to hear from you.
We require an individual who can help build upon the success of the History department and teach a student-focussed curriculum that allows our pupils to achieve their best possible outcomes. A willingness and enthusiasm to teach other humanities subjects would be an advantage, as part of a flexible
and dynamic faculty.
The successful candidate will become part of a progressive team, who are constantly at the heart of developments to promote excellence in the classroom. There is a very decisive shared approach, where everyone feels supported and works as a coherent and highly energised department.
This is an exciting time to be joining our Academy as we seek an additional teacher to meet rapidly increasing student numbers. Within the Academy two capital projects, costing in excess of £4 million pounds, have just been completed. The Academy has also recently undergone a superb transformation in September 2019 to facilitate students in years 7 to 11 across two sites.
Paignton Academy forms part of Bay Education Trust, a small Academy Trust comprising of three schools. The Trust was set up on 1st December 2014 to further develop the collaborative work across all three schools. The Academy is situated in Torbay and is part of the beautiful English Riviera. It is within easy reach of stunning beaches with golden sands, rolling countryside and Dartmoor. It is also only a short drive away, via the new South Devon link road, from the historic city of Exeter and its surrounding areas.
We welcome applications from high quality practitioners to join Paignton Academy. The successful candidate should have Qualified Teacher status and have an up-to-date knowledge of developments in History. The post would equally suit a Newly Qualified Teacher or experienced teachers looking for their next challenge.
Prospective candidates are very welcome to visit or make contact for an informal chat.
