Transition Curriculum Leader job summary

We are looking to strengthen our provision of literacy at key stage three by appointing a Transition Curriculum Leader. This post could be full time or part time and is a fantastic opportunity for a KS2 or KS3 teacher to take on whole-school responsibilities. The post involves raising standards of literacy in Year 7 and 8 for those students who join the college with low levels of literacy so that they have caught up with their peers to age related standards by the end of key stage three. The successful candidate will work closely with small groups of students in years 7 and 8, as well as working more widely across the curriculum to co-ordinate the college’s in-class and out-of-class interventions for low attaining students at KS3. The successful candidate will therefore be a passionate, student-centred, reflective and creative professional with excellent inter-personal skills. They will have a deep understanding of teaching, learning and assessment, with particular expertise in teaching students how to read.

We offer:

• A friendly and supportive work environment where staff feel valued
• Good training & development opportunities
• Discounted childcare in our on-site nursery
• Discounted use of our sport and fitness facilities
• Free parking & many other benefits

Commitment to safeguarding

The college is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. The successful applicant will be required to undertake a disclosure and barring service check. All appointments are subject to the satisfactory completion of all pre-employment checks.
