To Cover Maternity Leave (two terms - Spring and Summer 2020)

Solihull Academy is a free school, which opened in April 2018, catering for up to 110 Year 9 -11 pupils that will ensure all students across the Local Authority have access to a high-quality alternative educational provision. 

Situated in Solihull, just minutes off junction 4 of the M42, the new alternative provision Academy will provide a safe, well-ordered, caring and highly supportive learning environment that will deliver high-quality education to students who need a more closely- focused learning solution. The use of outstanding, inspiring teaching and clear, consistent guidance and support will play a pivotal role in helping each child fulfill their maximum potential for growth, self-worth, and self-control. Our students benefit from small class sizes where an emphasis will be placed on a personalised approach to learning. 

We are seeking to recruit an effective, creative and passionate Teacher of PE  for two terms only in Spring and Summer Terms 2020 to cover maternity leave.  

You will be required to help drive forward Teaching and Learning and have a real impact for our students. The successful candidate will have excellent subject knowledge, strong behaviour management skills, and be able to motivate students through inspirational teaching. This is an excellent opportunity for a talented teacher to join a new Academy. The successful applicant will join a new team of teachers and must be able to teach Key Stage 3 PE  and 4 Games as well at BTEC Sport (and, possibly, GCSE PE).

The Academy leadership team is determined to give our students the best opportunities possible to become successful, responsible citizens with the best life chances. This is a critical appointment for the school, and is an exciting opportunity for you to work in an aspirational, therapeutic and innovative environment with students who need you.   

Application forms should be completed in full and sent, along with letter of application, to Mr S Steinhaus, Solihull Academy, The Quadrangle, Cranmore Avenue, Shirley, Solihull B90 4LE, or email HR@sa.solihull.sch.uk.

"Open a school", they said...so we did...

"It’ll be great", they said...And it was, but also the toughest thing professionally any of us have done.

"So many pupils need something different", they said... and they were correct... our students did and do need something different.

Since April 18 we have been on a journey to use the idea of “Alternative” in Alternative Provision as a driver to create a new school for the most vulnerable pupils in the local authority, and the impact and results tell us we are making a real difference.  Prior to our opening our local authority permanently excluded more secondary students than 90% of the rest of the country despite being the wealthiest borough in the West Midlands. So, in a unique partnership between the Local Authority, mainstream school and ourselves, we built a school, provision and curriculum to combat that and ensure the best possible outcomes for highest tariff students in the local authority.  We have developed our school based on 4 specific targets:

-Prevent PEX

-Fewer FTE

-Beat Baseline and/or KS2 targets

-No NEETS

Every decision we make and every action we take is based on these four targets and absolutely child-focused and, from that simple premise, we have created our Academy.  If you are looking for a new challenge and have unconditional positive regard, emotional resilience and utter belief that every child deserves a better future, then maybe we  and, more importantly, our students need you as part of TeamSA.

Solihull Alternative Provision Multi Academy Trust:  Let's go to work!
