Job overview
We are looking for an inspiring and ambitious teacher, with exceptional teaching ability to join our ‘Outstanding in all areas’ academy. Maths might not be your subject specialism but, we are looking for great practitioners with an interest in Maths who would like to explore moving into teaching this core subject. We offer an innovative coaching program and would support you to secure and embed enhanced subject knowledge. You would also be teaching in your own subject area.
This is a temporary position for maternity cover in the first instance, for up to 12 months.
You may be a PE teacher trying to secure your next appointment or indeed an established practitioner looking for a new challenge. Perhaps you are a Design and Technology teacher with a passion for STEM. If you can motivate students to achieve their best, you are passionate about instilling a ‘Growth Mindset’ and can nurture students to see challenges as opportunities to flourish, we’d love to hear from you.
Brayton Academy was awarded ‘Outstanding in all areas’ in our most recent Ofsted inspection which highlighted our students’ exemplary behaviour and excellent attitudes to learning, our outstanding Leadership Team and the substantial progress made by students in lesson thanks to skilful teaching. Our GCSE results are ‘well above national average’ and our academy is the school of choice within our community. This is an excellent time to join our thriving academy.
Brayton Academy is proud to be part of The Rodillian Multi Academy Trust. The Rodillian ethos of resilience, a Growth Mindset and Positive Discipline has helped to transform schools – from their culture to their Ofsted ratings – as well as the lives of students and teachers.
Within the Trust we are committed to doing things differently – creating schools that students want to attend, and where teachers want to work. We raise aspiration levels for staff, students and schools by encouraging creativity in the classroom, and by giving our staff freedom to experiment with their teaching, as part of our pioneering curriculum. All of this is guided by our Positive Discipline policy – a traditional approach to behaviour management.
The successful candidate will enjoy access to high quality CPD. You will also be joining a happy Trust where 95% of colleagues agreed that they enjoy working here and 92% would recommend us to a friend or colleague (taken from 2022 staff well being survey). Our commitment to staff well being means we prioritise staff mental health, drive down unnecessary workload and support our colleagues to progress in their careers. Furthermore, our Admissions Policy states that the children of Trust colleagues can attend our academies, regardless of catchment area. You can therefore benefit from the certainty of your children being able to access a high quality education.
This role provides a real opportunity for you to make your mark, and as a growing Trust with an excellent reputation and access to high-quality CPD for all, there are always opportunities for career development.
