We are looking for an exceptional Teacher Of History to join our team for September 2021.

At Marine Academy we deliver a knowledge-rich curriculum that is cohesive, cumulative and highly sequenced. The curriculum is academic, rigorous and challenging. It has been designed with long-term memory in mind; students’ knowledge, skills and understanding are cemented by frequent and systematic revisiting.

As a teacher at Marine Academy your time will be highly valued. You will not be expected to mark homework- this is already planned and set for you. You will not be expected to attend pointless meetings- our meetings have specific foci, and only happen on a Monday. You will not be expected to handwrite feedback to students. Your lesson observations will not be graded but feedback will help you improve. Your lessons will not be disrupted by poor behaviour and we will remove students who cannot follow our rules so that you can get on with teaching.

You will receive weekly -1-2-1 coaching in order to make continual improvements within your teaching. This improvement will be aligned to the very latest in educational research and thinking. You will follow Schemes of Learning that are already planned and resourced for you. You will be supported by like-minded colleagues in an atmosphere of respect and creativity.

If you value knowledge, consistency of approach, the very highest academic and behavioural expectations of students and wish to be at the cutting edge of educational development then please apply for the post of History Teacher. Subject specialism is essential. We place 

History at the heart of our curriculum, with students studying the subject four times a week from Year 9 and twice a week prior to that. We also offer History at A-Level. 

We believe Devon is an amazing place to live and work. Its coastline, countryside and clean air offer professionals and their families an amazing lifestyle. 

We are delighted to be part of The Ted Wragg Multi Academy Trust - a values driven, rapidly growing Trust with a relentless focus on transforming lives through learning by delivering outstanding outcomes for every student, regardless of background.

With a reputation for highly successful school improvement in very challenging circumstances, we are passionate about driving up standards and raising the aspirations of all our students.

Marine Academy Plymouth are committed to safeguarding children in its care; any successful appointment is subject to a satisfactory DBS check. This post is suitable for NQTs.
