Our ideal candidate will have:
- Have an unwavering determination to deliver excellence for students from all starting points
- Share the Ark Soane beliefs, vision and mission and be aligned with the Ark six pillars underpinning it.
- Be committed to Ark’s ethos of high expectations for every student in both academic achievement and personal development.
- Be committed to continually improving classroom practice and raising attainment.
What the school offers its staff
- Twice as many training days as standard

Further details about the role
Ark Soane Academy is a new secondary school in Acton which opened in September 2021 to 180 year 7 students. We will continue to grow by 180 students each year until reaching full capacity in 2028.
Ark Soane Academy seeks to redefine what is possible in education: by insisting on the highest standards of behaviour; by delivering an immaculately planned and highly academic curriculum exceptionally well; and by providing our students with a compelling aspiration-raising ethos we seek to transform the future of students in a highly deprived community.
Behaviour at Soane is exemplary enabling you to deliver exceptional lessons. Soane students are a pleasure to teach and you can always expect a “thank you” as they leave the classroom. The curriculum ensures that teachers rarely plan alone: staff time is used where it is most valuable: working as a team to implement the curriculum for the students in our classrooms.
