We are looking for exceptional candidates for these roles in order to meet our total commitment to our Academies and the children they support. To that end, you must meet the following requirements: 

The successful applicant will be required to work across the maths curriculum from years 7 to 11 to support students with varying needs in small groups (2-4) or in a 1-2-1 setting. 

We can offer:

• Enthusiastic, professional, young people 
• A committed and supportive staff team
• A positive learning environment

The successful applicant will put the needs of young people first, have a passion for learning, excellent interpersonal skills and will be both ICT and emotionally literate. Tutors will be required to prepare their own resources to meet the needs of the students but to also use resources where directed by the HoD or the Director of Maths. 

This post will be attractive to colleagues wishing to develop their practice in a school where everybody is recognised as a learner. Due to the nature of the position, we are looking for someone who has strong communication skills (both written and verbal). 

Outwood Academy Shafton is located in the village of Shafton near Barnsley, South Yorkshire. It is a mixed school for both girls and boys ages 11-16, the number of students is constantly growing and we have 1365 students currently on role. We are an increasingly popular choice of secondary school for families in the local area and now have a waiting list for places in all year groups. 

The academy was inspected in January 2018 and we were thrilled to announce the judgement of ‘Good’ in every category, with Overall Effectiveness also judged to be ‘Good’. Ofsted praised leadership in the academy stating that ‘Leaders have established a culture of high aspirations. They are relentless in their determination to see every pupil succeed’. In addition to this they noted the high expectations that staff set for students: ‘Standards of behaviour are high due to the rigorous implementation of the school’s code of conduct’ The judgement was a huge accolade for the academy and the community it serves and rightly recognises the transformation in outcomes for young people over the 3 years since joining Outwood Grange Academies Trust.

You will join a well established team of maths specialists. Our learning environment is equipped to the highest possible specification and we would be proud to welcome you to show you around our academy. 

We believe that all teaching and support staff posts within our Family of Schools are key posts in terms of supporting student success and achievement across a broad range of subjects and experiences. As such we are keen to recruit dedicated and ambitious professionals who will add value to our Academy in both academic terms and through involvement in the fabric of learning and success beyond the classroom.

If you are interested, please apply now! We invite you to contact Ella Chadbourne Head of Maths e.chadbourne@shafton.outwood.com should you have any questions or require further details. A visit to the school is encouraged and can be arranged if required.
