KS3/4 Teacher with English

Job Title: KS3/4 Core Teacher

Location: AVESC, Mikado Road, Sawley, Nottingham. NG10 3GN

Grade/Scale: MPS/UPS + SEN 1 Actual Salary £25,714 to £41,604 + £2,270

Start date: ASAP

Contract: Full-time Teacher, Permanent

The Amber Valley and Erewash Support Centre is an alternative provision academy who provide education to students who are at risk of permanent exclusion or who have already been permanently excluded from mainstream education. Our provision caters for students in Key Stages 2, 3 and 4, at sites located in Ilkeston, Kirk Hallam, Sawley and Chesterfield.

We are seeking to appoint a talented and enthusiastic KS3/4 teacher with excellent interpersonal skills. We would prefer the successful candidate to have a specialism in English although this is not essential. The roll of a core teacher is to deliver a variety of subjects to pupils who have gaps in their learning, lack confidence and self-belief and can sometime be resistant to engage. The role will require some working across our three sites although the primary base will be Sawley. 

The successful candidate will inspire, motivate, challenge and support students to reach their full potential, have a good understanding of their academic, social and emotional needs, be a team player and have a positive approach to challenge and change.

Applicants should also have good knowledge and experience of working with disaffected pupils in a mainstream school, alternative provision or SEND type setting. An affinity for pupils with behaviour, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity.

Reporting directly to the Deputy Headteacher.

Benefits include: LGPS Pension Scheme, Westfield Health membership and free parking.
