Job overview

Undertake a role where you can shine by supporting children who need it most.

At the heart of Academy Transformation Trust, Phoenix Academy supports primary age pupils with a range of social, emotional and behavioural issues. Our Thematic Curriculum introduces a new topic every half term and stimulates a real love of learning, and we are passionate about Keeping Children Safe in Education – so we’re giving vulnerable children everything they need to become happy, stable and productive citizens.

Working with the Principal you will develop and implement outreach services to improve the lives of children in the wider community. In this key role, you will have the opportunity to shape the future of the academy and demonstrate your skills as a highly talented individual. As an Outstanding classroom practitioner, you will be keen to maintain a teaching commitment, in addition to your strategic leadership responsibilities.

You will be the strategic lead in behaviour management to maintain good order and discipline, engage pupils with SEN, and stimulate children of all abilities to reach their full potential. We will give you real scope to develop the social, emotional and cultural aspects of our pupils’ learning, and encourage you to set clear targets for both behaviour and academic achievement, so you will enjoy plenty of autonomy and wide-ranging opportunities to shape the way we work.

As an experienced and successful leader, ideally with a background of working with children with a variety of special needs/SEMH, you will bring everything it takes to engage children and transform their futures. Like us, you will be passionate about safeguarding, deeply committed to releasing potential, and determined to make a difference every day. 

If you have what it takes, your future could take you anywhere within the school or across the Trust’s network of 24 academies.

Visits to Phoenix Academy are welcomed and will take place at 10.00am on 24 November or 1.30pm on 28 November.

If you are ready to apply right now, please complete an online application. 

Closing date: 30 November 2017.

Academy Transformation Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and safety of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. An Enhanced Disclosure Barring Service (DBS) Check, 2 satisfactory references and verification of qualifications are required for the post.

Here at Phoenix Academy, we are extremely ambitious for our pupils and although our pupils have a range of different needs, we strive to eradicate barriers to educational success for all.

We are pupil centred, and this means that we recognise that achievement has many forms and the imparting of skills that will have life-long benefits is key to our teaching philosophy. Our teachers are committed to delivering excellent learning experiences for all pupils, with a key focus on their wellbeing through compassionate and ethical engagement. We will help them to be the very best they can be.

Once our pupils move onto secondary school, we are proud that they will leave with high self esteem that enables them to meet the challenges ahead with determination and confidence.
