Job overview

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an outstanding teacher to join our thriving and successful Trust to teach Science in Key Stages 3&4 at Langdon Academy. At KS4, there will be an opportunity to match teaching to your own Science specialism in order to give our students, many of whom aspire to Science- related careers, the expert tuition they need to achieve their targets.

We are fortunate in already having a very strong team in place with outstanding colleagues and inspirational leaders, working within excellent facilities.

Ofsted’s view (May 2019) that most teaching in our secondary phase is “routinely outstanding” indicates the standard we set out to achieve in all classrooms. We are therefore seeking to recruit a colleague with excellent subject knowledge and clear evidence of their motivation and ability to deliver excellent outcomes for students.

Langdon Academy is a large 4-16 school, with over 1800 students in the secondary phase, and is part of Brampton Manor Trust, along with Brampton Manor Academy (an outstanding 11-18 Academy).

This appointment is a golden opportunity to strengthen our team further with a new, talented and enthusiastic Science specialist. If that sounds like you, we’d be keen to hear from you. You will be joining a team with experienced and dynamic leaders who will support you through the next stages of your professional development.

The scale of Langdon, the fact that it also has a primary phase, and its membership of Brampton Manor Trust provides considerable opportunity for the continuing development of our staff. This post would suit a NQT or a more experienced colleague looking to broaden their experience. A TLR point may be available to take on additional responsibility within the department or school.

Please visit our websites at www.langdonacademy.org or www.bramptonmanor.org to apply and obtain further details about this role. All completed application forms must be sent by email to jobs@bramptonmanor.org.

Brampton Manor Trust isc ommitted to the safeguarding of children. Enhanced DBS checks will always be carried out on new employees.

Please note: Interviews will take place on a rolling basis, as applications are received

About Langdon Academy

Langdon Academy is a mixed, non-denominational all-through academy school for three to 16-year-olds located in East Ham in the east London borough of Newham. It has capacity for just over 2,400 pupils.

The school is part of the Brampton Manor Trust, a multi-academy trust which also runs Brampton Manor Academy. Langdon Academy (previously Langdon School) joined the trust in 2014.

The school was originally three separate institutions, built in 1953. In 1972, these schools - Burges Manor, Thomas Lethaby and East Ham Grammar School - were combined to form Langdon School, a mixed comprehensive that would later become Langdon Academy.
