This is an incredible opportunity for a Teacher of Science and Maths (KS3/KS4) to make a difference and join a great team of people within a supportive, values-led organisation in the secondary provision. For the right candidate, there is an opportunity for a middle leadership role within the academy.

About our Academy

Located in Fulham, Ormiston Bridge Academy provides a caring environment based on integrity, mutual respect, and understanding. It seeks to reignite passion in education and aspiration. Each learner is treated as an individual and is supported to develop within an environment that develops a love of learning and the ability to create social and emotional skills fit for the world outside of education.

The main provision at Bridge is for secondary learners, but we have primary provision on site, along with a managed intervention centre and outreach service. Our learners are at risk of or have been excluded from mainstream settings. We serve the London borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. We believe that success for our young people comes because of our specialist approach; we are interested in activities that develop all young people’s capabilities; their potential for employability; their ability to have successful healthy relationships; their ability to make safe life choices, enhancing their quality of life and the realisation of their aspirations.

Our approach considers our young people’s education experiences to date, their social-emotional health, their mental health, their family situation and experiences, and their special educational needs (SEN). We work closely with professionals, families, and other practitioners to affect change in our young people’s lives, ensuring our work is holistic and therefore creates success by any means for all our children. We are proud of the work that we do, and the environment of our school is caring supportive, and inclusive. We believe that through this approach we support our children, enhancing their quality of life and promoting the realisation of their aspirations.

“Pupils enjoy coming to Ormiston Bridge. Staff work closely with pupils. They find out about their needs and the barriers to learning they may have had at their previous schools. Pupils said that they know the staff cares about them and their well-being.”
