Job overview

The RSA Academy in Tipton (West Midlands) is an oversubscribed and expanding 11-19 school with 1047 students (including Sixth Form). This will rise to 1200 plus sixth form over the next four years. The school has been at the heart of our community since becoming an academy in 2008, and a member of the RSA Family of Academies. The school joined the Central RSA Academies Trust on 1st October 2017.  

The Academy was judged to be ‘good’ by Ofsted inspection in July 2016.  The school is highly aspirational, boasting fantastic facilities for both students and staff, including a £5 million new build block, to enable expansion that opened in September. Significant changes have been made in the last year to remove barriers to improvement, and the successful candidate will be joining the school at a critical and exciting time to drive things forward.  

The successful candidate will be passionate about the teaching of Mathematics and driven to share high quality and innovative practice in the classroom. Our mission is ‘transforming learning, transforming lives’ for a reason. You will need to have a genuine commitment in wanting to make a difference to the lives of our young people; including their self-esteem, aspirations and social wellbeing.

We will also consider a dual role with Progress Lead responsibility. The Progress Lead has a teaching timetable as well as responsibility for pastoral support, progress and behaviour management throughout an assigned year group. 

Supported by a Head of Year (non-teaching), the Progress Lead is a key pastoral leadership post within the school with critical importance for securing excellent progress and wellbeing of the students. If you are interested in exploring this further, please express interest on your application.

Applications are welcomes from newly qualified as well as more experienced professionals who possess the necessary drive and commitment to work with our students to contribute to the continued improvement of maths within the Trust. In return there will be clear opportunities for personal and professional development.

Gospel Oak School, formerly the RSA Academy serves the borough of Sandwell, but due to its geographical position students join us from Wolverhampton and Walsall.  In 2017 the school joined the Central RSA Academies Trust and has been working closely and collaboratively across the trust to offer greater opportunities for all.  Over the last 5 years the trust has grown in size and strength, from September 2021 the trust is now an academy approved sponsor in its own right and the RSA will no longer sponsor the trust, although we will continue to work closely with the RSA.  This changing relationship has provided the trust and the school to rebrand ourselves, the trust will now be known as Central Region Schools Trust and the school; Gospel Oak School.


The rebrand for the school has allowed us to reflect on the true heritage of the local community.  The school is based in Gospel Oak and as a community we are very proud of our Black Country heritage, it is for this reason our new branding reflects the colours of the Black Country along with symbolic representation of the area, with the narrowboat which reflects the locality of the Gospel Oak canal basin, the oak tree for when the parish was so large the parishioners prayed under it once a month and the Black Country links to industry within the area.
