“Developing people of good character, who achieve excellence and make a positive contribution to their community”
The Newark town partnership’s alternative provision is a centre which provides education for students who require an alternative educational provision for a range of reasons. Students are from local secondary schools and study a range of qualifications including GCSEs and vocational courses. The small, nurturing environment leads to these students achieving success and moving on to further education, employment and training. The partnership is led by Magnus Church of England Academy and Newark Academy and is based in Newark.
We are looking for a lead mentor who will:
• Inspire and engage young people through building strong relationships which enable them to make good academic progress.
• Reduce barriers to learning/behaviour patterns by improving motivation, engagement and enjoyment within a nurturing and safe environment in which individuals can grow and learn.

• Plan, resource and deliver lessons within a range of curriculum areas including vocational, personal and social development units and GCSE subjects.
• Liaise, communicate and support our most vulnerable students and their families working alongside external agencies and key staff within both schools to develop better learning, social strategies and maximise their achievement.

Formerly Magnus C of E School, the amalgamation of the Magdalene High School and The Thomas Magnus School, Manus C of E Academy converted to academy status in 2014. Founded as a grammar school in 1531 by British diplomat Thomas Magnus, the school’s original building is now a museum.

Ofsted
“Every effort is made by leaders and by teachers to raise expectations for pupils in order that they succeed. It is no longer acceptable for them to misbehave, not attend school or not wear their uniform with pride. Every indication is that pupils are responding positively to these expectations and are making improving progress in their learning as a result”.
