Job overview
1 FTE – Fixed Term Contract from 1st January 2022 to 31st August 2022
We have a post available from January 2022 to teach Secondary English as part of this department. Whilst this is a medium-term cover opportunity, from January – July, there is the opportunity for a permanent position for the right candidate and we would be happy to discuss this with you as part of the application process.
Whether you are relatively new in the profession or have more experience, we don’t mind – what we are looking for is someone who is enthusiastic and passionate about their subject area and motivated to ensure English has the recognition it deserves as part of a well-balanced curriculum.
If you have imagination, drive and the desire to be successful, can demonstrate a passion for your subject and share this enthusiasm with pupils, we want to hear from you.
At our last Ofsted we were designated to be a ‘Good’ school and the Academy has continued its progression since then, with our value added and Progress 8 data rising. If you are the kind of person who wholeheartedly believes in offering the very best for children in their school life, who wants opportunities to develop your own practice and who strives for excellence, then this is the place for you.
ESW is committed to safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and an enhanced disclosure via the Disclosure and Barring Service.

About Dartmouth Academy
Open since September 2010, with modern purpose-built facilities from 2014, Dartmouth Academy is one of a small but growing number of schools nationally who offer education for children from ages 3-16.
At the Academy, staff are passionate in their commitment to our core message: our future successes are built on the work we do today.
As an all-through Academy, we believe in building long-lasting relationships with pupils and their families and take pride in being at the heart of our community. Children flourish when they feel safe and secure; care underpins all that we do.
Woven throughout both our aspirational curriculum and ethos of empathy and understanding is the drive for every child to be a scholar in their learning. Staff create and teach academically-rich schema whilst understanding, and planning to overcome, any barriers a child may face. The concept of scholarship drives the role which staff play in being instrumental to every child’s development, not simply in their academic achievements but also as a person.
From the moment pupils arrive into our Early Years Foundation Stage, we share with them the school mantra that fosters both academic success as not a measure of ability but an indication of how hard pupils work: Be Your Best Self.
