Teacher of PE (maternity cover) job summary

If you are passionate about sport, and want to help young people improve their physical fitness and interest in sport, GFM Education is an organisation you will want to join.

The role of a PE teacher is to plan and teach a variety of lessons in physical education, to improve physical and social skills, in children of different ages. It’s about sharing your passion for sport, encouraging children to be more active, and to try new sports, as well as giving them the tools to improve physically and mentally. You will be helping children to develop stronger muscles and co-ordination; understand how the body works and how to keep healthy (i.e. importance of warm up/cool down exercises to reduce injuries etc.); develop healthy body image ideas; and improve confidence both in terms of playing sport and general life.

Key skills and traits required:
• Good athletic ability and knowledge of the human body
• Good leadership and communication skills
• Strong ability to motivate and inspire
• Good initiative, and problem solving skills
• Ability to remain calm and show empathy
• Ability to think on your feet and adapt to changing situations

We are looking for an outstanding teacher of Physical Education who has a positive disposition and is forward-thinking. You will work as a part of a large and successful team delivering PE across the curriculum, including GCSE, level 2 vocational awards and A-level. You will have access to our fantastic facilities across the trust including a Swimming Pool, 3G Astroturf and multiple Sports Halls.

Energy, enthusiasm, positivity and a readiness to contribute to the full breadth of our provision are must-haves. You will be willing to go above and beyond for our students and community to support the trust’s vision in providing unique and equitable opportunities and experiences.

We would be interested in receiving applications from both experienced and ECT colleagues if you;

• Have a passion for every child achieving beyond what they might have thought possible
• Have a commitment to breaking down barriers to learning
• are a highly effective communicator and a ‘people’ person
• Have a strong commitment to safeguarding
• Are sensitive to students’ needs
• Have a determination to secure positive progress and high aspirations for and with students
• are committed to nurture a child’s happiness and enjoyment of school and life
• are an enthusiastic individual and team player with a good sense of humour

Commitment to safeguarding

GFM is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this. Successful candidates will be subject to a DBS along with other employment checks. It is a criminal offence to apply for or accept a position working with children if you are excluded from such work by virtue of a court order or exclusion by the DBS. Although a criminal record involving offences against children is likely to debar you from this type of post, the existence of other criminal convictions will not necessarily be a bar to employment.
