Are you looking for a new, exciting challenge?
Do you want to work within a rapidly improving school?

Swindon Academy is looking to appoint a well-qualified and dynamic Year Leader - KS1 or KS2. You will lead an assigned year group to achieve high quality teaching, effective use of resources and the highest standards of learning and achievement for all pupils through a creative and rigorous curriculum.

It is an exciting opportunity to join Swindon Academy which was inspected by Ofsted in May 2017 and judged to be a "good" school. Inspectors noted that "Pupils are well behaved and ready to learn. Leaders have very clear expectations of appropriate behaviour, which teachers manage effectively and consistently.“ Swindon Academy is part of a United Learining Cluster with Nova Hreod Academy and there are opportunities for sharing good practice and joint CPD across the cluster.

We are looking for a Year Leader who:

- is passionate about their subject and is a great practitioner with high expectations and good classroom management
- is interested in the science of learning and is commited to continuous improvement
- can demonstrate excellent organisational and inter-personal skills and the ability to contribute to a team
- has clear vision, energy and commitment to all aspects of school life
- has a desire and passion to make a real difference to the lives and life-chances of our students

UNITED LEARNING

Swindon Academy is part of United Learning, a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.

Our schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. Our subject specialists, our Group-wide intranet, our own curriculum and our online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.

As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.

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.

Our recruitment process follows the keeping children safe in education guidance.

Offers of employment may be subject to the following checks (where relevant):
childcare disqualification
Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS)
medical
online and social media
prohibition from teaching
right to work
satisfactory references
suitability to work with children

You must tell us about any unspent conviction, cautions, reprimands or warnings under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975.
