Classroom Teacher of Business and/or Computing

Part-time hours available

Salary £25,714 to £41,604 dependant on experience

Permanent 

South Hunsley School and Sixth Form College are seeking to appoint to the role of Teacher of Business and/or Computing on a part-time basis, to commence September 2022. We are seeking a highly motivated and passionate individual and if successful, you would be working closely with an established Business, and Computing team in promoting the highest standards of teaching and learning to support students of all backgrounds and abilities.

South Hunsley is a special place to work, study and learn with a strong tradition of excellence, both within and beyond the classroom. We have an established reputation for strong academic performance and are consistently a top performer both locally and nationally.

Here at South Hunsley we passionately believe in the limitless potential of every member of our school community. We want everyone to be happy, confident and successful so we can all achieve more than we think is possible. We can promise support, care, encouragement and respect as well as really enjoyable and rewarding working and learning environment.

Within The Education Alliance Multi Academy Trust, there are lots of opportunities for collaboration and also further opportunities to develop and progress.  As a trust, we are here to make great schools and happier, stronger communities so that people have better lives.  For too long in many schools, staff have been asked to choose between being seen as good at their job and being a good mum, dad, partner, son, daughter or friend. We are doing everything we can to support our staff to balance the demands of their jobs and those at home. 

To support this, we: 

√   Trust our staff to plan, prepare and assess at the best time for them, allowing them to go off-site in their PPA 

√   Have centralised our Behaviour Policy so teachers are freed up from supervising detentions

√   Demand ethical leadership built on professional trust

√   Reject fads and ensure our CPD is evidence-informed and predominantly subject specific 

√   Have reduced data collections to twice yearly

√   Do not expect staff to respond to emails outside normal working hours 

√   Do not deploy staff at other Trust schools unless it is at their request 

We have removed the following: 

X Performance management objectives and performance-related pay

X Lesson observations and high stakes, toxic accountability

X Onerous marking policies

X Requirements for daily or weekly lesson plans

Above all, we recognise that seeking to remove the number of tasks staff undertake will have little effect on improving work/home balance if this happens within a toxic culture.  To support this, we offer training for our leaders to ensure they are able to translate our values into behaviours which are built on the principles of dignity, respect, professionalism and integrity. 

If you would like an informal discussion about the role, or would like to visit us to see what we have to offer, please contact Freya Dobson on 01482 631208 or by email at freya.dobson@southhunsley.org.uk . 

The closing date for applications is 9.00am on Thursday 10th February 2022 and it is anticipated that interviews will be held the following week. 

South Hunsley School and Sixth Form College is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.  Clearance from the Disclosure and Barring Service is required prior to appointment.
