Grade/Scale: MPS/UPS +SEN1 Actual Salary £25,714 - £41,604 +£2,270 

Start date: September 2022

Contract: Permanent full time, 32.5 hours


It is a really exciting time in the academy’s development as we look to expand our provision, enhance the curriculum offer and build a reputation as the alternative provider of choice in the county. We have made some really exciting appointments in the last few months at a time where recruitment presents it challenges and we are now looking to offer a full -time permanent contract for a teacher to join our academy. 

We are looking to recruit an inspiring teacher to join our academy to predominantly teach at the Hasland and High Peak sites to the KS3 and KS3 pupils. The staffing teams are small compared to a mainstream and the post will suit a teacher who will take ownership of their subject and is willing to be flexible to meet the needs of the pupils and the academy. The High Peak site will have around 25 pupils on roll and the Hasland site up to 65 pupils. We welcome applications from candidates who are able to teach engaging and inspiring lessons to challenging and disengaged KS3 and 4 pupils. This is a core teacher post and may not be subject specific. Therefore, a teacher with the ability to deliver a range of subjects would be advantageous. As would a candidate who has knowledge of phonics or a primary background and the ability to teach to GCSE. However, this is not a stipulation.


This post will be based at one of our sites for mileage purposes, however our academy is multi sited and therefore a teaching commitment may be expected at more than one site and there may be travel for CPD and meetings. We must ensure that we meet the needs of our pupils and where there is demand for places. Teaching may also take place in pupil’s home or other venues and so this role may be peripatetic at times. Candidates must have access to a vehicle and car insurance with business use included.


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


For further information and/or to arrange a school visit please contact Janine Dix, Headteacher, via email to jdix@nedsc.derbyshire.sch.uk or visit our website at www.esteemmat.co.uk/jointheteam.   Please use the relevant application form on the MAT website; CVs alone will not be accepted.  


Closing date for applications:  Friday 17 June 2022 (12 noon) 

Interview date: week commencing 20/27 June 2022


Esteem Multi-Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all its pupils. We expect all staff, volunteers and agency staff to share this commitment.  The successful candidate will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. The possession of a criminal record will not necessarily prevent an applicant from obtaining this post, as all cases are judged individually according to the nature of the role and information provided.

Welcome to the North East Derbyshire AP Academy and thank you for your interest in our Academy.

The North East Derbyshire AP (alternative provision) Academy provides 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 Chesterfield and in the High Peak.

Every child deserves an education. Our primary aim is to support and re-engage young people, enabling them to think positively about their future pathway, and life after the Support Centre, whether that be re-integration into mainstream, further education or employment. Our Vision: "Inspire, Achieve, Exceed"

​Our Pupils will:

  • ​Feel safe, valued and trusted
  • Recognise and achieve their full potential
  • Take responsibility for their behaviour, and make healthy lifestyle choices
  • Be positive about themselves and their future
  • Be tolerant of others, and of the beliefs and views of others
  • Be successful learners, both independently and when working with others
  • Be self-motivated and have high expectations

​We will achieve this by:

  • ​Creating a safe learning environment, free of stigma and negativity
  • Celebrating the success and achievements of every member of the learning community
  • Establishing nurturing and supportive relationships between staff and pupils
  • Setting high expectations for behaviour and academic success
  • Providing a broad, balanced and relevant curriculum that provides the skills, confidence and qualifications to access opportunities in life
  • Innovating learning, to engage and inspire
  • Promoting tolerance and mutual respect
  • Providing opportunities for students, parents and carers to voice opinions which form part of the decision-making process
  • Providing an inclusive programme of learning opportunities and experiences that promote engagement

Whilst the majority of our students have been permanently excluded, we work closely with local school clusters and the local authority to provide education opportunities to young people who are at risk of exclusion. Such placements have been highly successful in preventing numerous permanent exclusions in Derbyshire.

We are committed to working in partnership with young people, their parents and carers, their schools and other agencies to re-engage and enable them to become successful learners and responsible citizens. Where students are able to demonstrate positive behaviour and a desire to achieve, we aim to help them transition back to mainstream school. For those who require a more alternative approach, we provide a balanced and varied curriculum, delivered through high quality teaching and learning.

Alternative Provision is not a last resort for young people. For some it is the most appropriate way to meet their needs and put them back on a pathway to success.

Further information about our academy can be found on the website at www.nedsc.derbyshire.sch.uk

Yours faithfully,

Janine Dix
