Teacher of RESPECT- RE, Social and Personal Education and Citizenship (plus additional subject) job summary

Wardle Academy is looking to appoint an outstanding Teacher of RESPECT, who is ready to make a significant impact in a successful department. As part of the RESPECT department the successful candidate will be joining a vibrant and successful team, committed to providing a quality experience for our students and ensuring that they achieve their full potential.

RESPECT is a combination of Religious Education, Social and Personal Education and Citizenship. The name reflects not only the content of the subject, but also the main aim – teaching respect for myself and other people.

As well as teaching RESPECT, there is an expectation that the successful candidate will teach an additional National curriculum subject.

Although each of the curriculum areas within RESPECT has its own distinct aims, objectives and subject content, it is our belief that these areas can and do complement each other and provide a well-balanced education for all our students.

RESPECT is taught across all year groups. As part of the RESPECT curriculum all students in Year 9 start to complete an element of the GCSE in Citizenship Studies. Students also have the opportunity to study GCSE Religious Studies in Key Stage 4.

We are always keen to recruit committed individuals with the potential to be exceptional teachers. Ideally a consistently good/outstanding practitioner, you will maximize the potential of our students by raising their aspirations as well as their attainment.

The successful candidate will have the ability to plan effective lessons, using student data to inform planning and progression. You will also have high expectations of students, based on a sound knowledge of their prior and potential attainment. Just as importantly, you will be a team player.

Whilst ensuring effective whole class, group or individual learning opportunities are available to students which engage and challenge all ability levels, you will set high standards of expectations of students’ behaviour through positive classroom discipline.

Wardle Academy was inspected by Ofsted in December 2017 and judged to be good in all aspects. We are determined to carry on improving. An essential part of this is the training and development of staff; we encourage our staff to seek courses and opportunities which help them further their careers, whilst also contributing further to the progression of the Academy.

This role would suit an NQT or an experienced teacher.

Commitment to safeguarding

Our organisation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff, volunteers and trustees to share this commitment.
