Music & Performing Arts Teacher

Are you an inspirational, creative, enthusiastic individual who is committed to active learning and who is forward thinking? Your challenge will be to teach interactive lessons to high levels of student progress. If you are a great teacher, passionate about inspiring children from all backgrounds to achieve their full potential, and can uphold and encourage our values of Respect, Ambition and Bravery - we want to hear from you. 

The successful candidate will have an unwavering commitment to raising standards within the Department and be highly motivated, creative and above all resilient. Students have great success across the subjects in and outside of the lessons and it is important you can contribute to this. We offer an extensive programme of school and Trust CPD, to help you grow and develop as an excellent practitioner.  

We’re situated in the former industrial heartland of Yorkshire, close to the junction of the M62 and A1 and its transport links. The Trust currently comprises four schools across the primary and secondary phases, with plans for future growth and the opportunities that brings.

Our ethos is children first and we’re here to transform the lives of children, many from hugely disadvantaged backgrounds. Working in our schools can be very challenging, but hugely rewarding in terms of the difference you can make to children’s futures by helping them reach their full potential.

Airedale Academy itself is a good school, with solid finances and rising pupil numbers over the next few years. Talk to our staff or pupils and you’ll find out how proud we are of our school, its supportive atmosphere and strong team ethos. 

Our wellbeing programme includes a range of benefits including break-time refreshments, access to fitness facilities including a gym and weekly yoga, discounted Microsoft products, free flu jabs and visits by a car valet company, as well as regular staff social events.

If you have the vision and skills to deliver inspirational teaching, whilst having the focus and drive to ensure successful outcomes are reached we’d love to hear from you. For more details, or if you’re ready to apply, visit our website www.northernambition.org.uk/vacancies
