Do you have what it takes to work one of the top 5% of schools nationally?  If so, we want to hear from you!

We are seeking to appoint a well-motivated, energetic and committed individual to join our dynamic PE department, providing technical support for on site sporting activities, alongside supporting some external fixtures and tournaments. There is also an opportunity for the right candidate to deliver some PE lessons as an Instructor.  Working hours would be determined once the timetable is finalised, but we anticipate a higher number of Instructor hours. This offers a great opportunity for an Early Career Teacher or someone considering undertaking teacher training.

We are oversubscribed in Year 7 every year which reflects the first-class facilities we have on site as well as our fantastic students and staff who make the school a great place to learn. We pride ourselves on achieving outstanding outcomes in a school with an inclusive ethos that has superb pastoral care and a strong commitment to staff mental health and work-life balance. 

Baysgarth continues to be a Good school that is ‘making good progress on the journey to outstanding’ according to Ofsted, who visited most recently in January 2023. Inspectors described the school to “have created an inclusive community” where “pupils are well cared for”, “have access to a wide range of enrichment opportunities”, “benefit from high-quality teaching”, along with having access to “a range of experiences that go beyond the national curriculum…experiences that they may not otherwise have had”. Leadership and governance is strong, with “a clear vision” and “high expectations”. Baysgarth is consistently one of the top performing schools in the Humber region and it is our mission to recruit the most talented staff to cement our excellent reputation.

The following qualifications and experience are essential:

• GCSE PE/BTEC/OCR Sport (or equivalent) Grade B or above
• Experience of working within the field of sport or exercise, preferably within a school environment
• Experience of coaching and leading children
• Experience of using various ICT packages and software (ideally Google Suite) to support students’ learning
• Ability to use a range of equipment and software to complement and support planned lessons
• Utilising a range of behaviour management strategies confidently and effectively

Baysgarth School is an 11-16 comprehensive with approximately 970 pupils on roll; a number that will rise to over 1,000 in the next few years. The successful candidate will be expected to have pride, passion, positivity and vision and a desire to ensure the school has the highest possible reputation in the local community and beyond.

Baysgarth School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful applicant will be required to apply for enhanced disclosure from the DBS.

If you are inspired by the challenge and responsibility of this opportunity, we would like to hear from you. Further details and an application form can be downloaded from the school’s website. If you would like to discuss any aspect of the post, please feel free to contact Billy McNaught, Head of PE via Billy.mcnaught@baysgarthschool.co.uk or Chris Wright, Director of Sport, via Christopher.wright@baysgarthschool.co.uk. 

Please submit completed applications to vacancy@baysgarthschool.co.uk. Please note, we cannot accept CVs.
