Teacher of Biology

Tarleton Academy is a warm, vibrant school with a culture of individual and collective aspiration. We are now looking for a dynamic and creative Teacher of Science to join our successful, supportive and mutually ambitious team. This post presents an exciting opportunity to join an ever-evolving Faculty, committed to engaging our students in all aspects of its provision.

Working as part of a committed team of Science Specialists, you will be involved in reviewing and developing schemes of work and resources, addressing gaps in attainment of underachieving students and ensuring progression for the classes you teach. Through your passion for learning you will develop new and creative ideas, embedding an enjoyment of your subject into lessons and the wider school.

For our staff, we are firmly committed to ensuring this is a job that can be enjoyed, where everyone can flourish, because we pay close attention to work/home balance. Across the Trust, we continue to develop strategies that take a common-sense approach to those aspects of the role that could become an unnecessary burden on workload - these include a proactive behaviour for learning approach which empowers teachers to focus on teaching, including centralised detentions and smart assessment, feedback & marking processes which minimise time spent on onerous tasks.

Our collaboration is central to our Trust and our Teachers learn together, sharing their practice and encouraging and supporting each other to get the best out of our working day. The successful candidate will have opportunities to work with colleagues across the Trust and Schools Alliance to support and develop the teaching of science with our family of schools.
