Archbishop Sentamu Academy, which is part of Sentamu Academy Learning Trust, has strong links with rugby league locally and nationally and have developed a unique scholarship programme working with boys and girls year 7-11. We believe that for some students sport plays a significant role in education and our programme aims to produce independent, intelligent learners who are well rounded and respectable individuals through the guidance and support of patient and committed educators, mentors and coaches. 

The Trust also recognises the importance of equipping every child to lead a healthy, active lifestyle; this starts at primary school.

We are currently looking for a unique Sports Coach to undertake a unique dual role.  Part of this would be working with the ASA rugby scholarship programme to promote and develop female participation as well as working with another of the Trust’s academies, St James’ CE Primary Academy, to create an inclusive physical education programme within the primary school physical literacy framework. 

The job holder will be expected to:

• Deliver practical and classroom sessions

• Support with after school curricular activities and fixtures, locally, regionally and nationally

• Promote the rugby scholarship programme via delivery within local primary schools

• Create and deliver a high quality primary school physical education programme at St James’ to engage all students with a wide range of sporting activities.

• Develop and deliver an inter-school competition programme at St James’, providing opportunities that include all key stage 2 pupils in competitive sport.

The ideal candidate will have a UKCC Level 2 qualification or above, experience of coaching rugby league and/or football, particularly with young people.  They will be a flexible team player passionate about education and sports and have strong behaviour management skills with a creative approach to teaching and engaging young people in sports.  Knowledge of child protection and health and safety procedures would be an advantage.  

Due to the nature of the role a full valid driving licence and access to a vehicle with appropriate  insurance cover on a daily basis is essential (mileage rates payable).

This role is partly funded via Primary PE and Sport Premium funding and continuation of the role cannot be guaranteed should this funding be withdrawn.

Closing Date for applications: 9am, 24th May 2019

About Archbishop Sentamu Academy

Archbishop Sentamu Academy is one of six Hope Sentamu Learning Trust secondary schools. The academy has undergone a period of transformation and rapid improvement since joining the last OFsted and has this year celebrated the most successful results on record. This is an exciting time for the academy and will be an exciting opportunity for an ambitious educational professional to join the team. This is a great career opportunity, a chance to work in a close knit community but with extensive opportunities for professional development across the Trust as a whole.

Archbishop Sentamu is an 11-18 Church of England comprehensive school which serves a mixed, but heavily deprived catchment from East Hull. The academy is over-subscribed; it has a growing population of more than 1400 students who enter the school with attainment below national averages, but with an increasing number of high attainers and gifted and talented pupils. Our commitment to every child is absolute and we strive to meet the needs of all our pupils whether they are capable of achieving ten Grade 9’s at GCSE or require the support of a full time teaching assistant or individual package of learning in order to reach their full potential.

Our distinctively Christian vision is that everyone will be able ‘to lead the best life possible’, now and in the future. It is underpinned by the words of Jesus in John 10:10 which says, “I have come that you may have life in all its fullness.” Our vision is lived out through our academy values of Respect, Community, Courage and Wisdom. This leads to an ethos where we expect each individual to be their very best by accepting personal responsibility and always striving to do better. Each member of our community is respectfully treated to have the courage to push themselves to be inspiring future citizens and have the good wisdom to ensure they seek the support they need to do this. These expectations extend far beyond learning. We expect the highest standards of behaviour, creating an environment where students feel safe, sanctions are applied fairly and positive contributions are recognised and rewarded.
