Job overview
Voice 21, based at School 21, is looking to expand its programme team, as the organisation moves into an exciting new chapter of growth. We are a small team with mighty ambitions and are looking for a dynamic and devoted self-starter, comfortable to lead our ever-growing delivery demands from schools across the country.
Voice 21 is a charity dedicated to promoting the value of oracy in education in the schools that need it most. Launched within School 21, an award winning outstanding school in East London, we've since grown to work with schools all over the UK. We provide professional and leadership development, school improvement and curriculum resources to enable schools to support children and young people to find their voice for success in education and in life. We also lead a campaign to influence educators, policymakers and influencers to take speaking seriously in schools.
You don’t need to be an expert in oracy education yet – we’ll help with that. It’s essential, however, that you’re a skilled and engaging communicator who can show evidence of excellent teaching practice in a primary or secondary school. You should be passionate about relationship
building, education and social mobility and have unashamedly high expectations for the quality of the programmes you deliver and impact you achieve.
The immediate priority is to recruit at least one full-time Programme Lead or Facilitator (dependent on experience) based in London, but with expected travel across the country.
To apply: Please submit a CV and cover letter outlining your suitability for the role to careers@voice21.org
Deadline to apply: 2nd January 2018 at 5pm

About School 21
About School 21
School 21 is a pioneering 4 to 18 school in Stratford, East London, for girls and boys and children from all starting points and backgrounds. We are looking for the next cohort of teachers who want to continue to shape the school so that it stays at the forefront of innovation in education.
School 21 is a very special and different kind of place to work in. We empower staff to find their voice and their creativity. We offer collaboration and learning across ages and subjects. All staff have tailored programmes of professional development which results in extraordinary outcomes for the students. We offer multiple routes for progression through subjects and pedagogies. We believe strongly in developing the full potential of all staff.
The mission of School 21 is to empower young people to take on the world. Through a rich curriculum of ‘head’, ‘heart’ and ‘hand’ we want children knowing a lot, understanding themselves and making things happen. Our ‘dialogic approach’ to teaching helps children learn through talk and learn to talk and give everyone a voice.
We think schools should be places where children craft stunning work with real products, for real audiences and as a result of real teacher collaboration. Over the past few years our students have created immersive theatre productions depicting the French and Russian revolutions, built mechanical toys bursting with scientific craft. They have spoken out about human rights, ran campaigns to improve the biodiversity of Stratford and charted local history through photographs and poetry. Student work has been critiqued by directors and historians, professors and artists. All work is displayed, celebrated and challenged at termly Exhibitions of Beautiful Work where children tell us their stories of learning, drawing on their deep wells of oracy and well-being.
