Job overview
Teaching Apprentice – Maths or Science
London Enterprise Academy, United Kingdom
Are you a Maths or Science graduate with interest in working with young people?
Do you want to be part of a team that will help inner-city children to do the seemingly impossible?
London Enterprise Academy is an exciting free school that opened in September 2014 with excellent
GCSE results in recent examinations. Our intention is to transform the lives of children from
disadvantaged backgrounds.
This position offers lots of opportunities for promotion and development either as a teacher, or within
the support staff.
As a Teaching Apprentice, you’ll support teachers in classrooms with behaviour and learning as well as
doing some teaching and covering lessons. As you grow in confidence, you’ll be able to run enrichment
classes and hold a club after school. You will make teaching resources and phone calls home to parents.
You will be in charge of small intervention groups to help support pupils to accelerate their learning.
A Teaching Apprentice might be someone who is thinking about becoming a teacher but isn’t certain
yet. Perhaps you want a chance to try things out as a classroom assistant for a year. You might also be
someone who is passionate about reading or mathematics and would like to support teachers both
inside and outside the classroom for some time to come. If you want to learn how to teach, this is the
best school to do it in.
We have set very ambitious academic targets for our pupils and last two years have delivered good
results in English, maths and science. If you want to work in an environment where you will really make
a difference, London Enterprise Academy is for you.
Skills and abilities:
-Excellent use of ICT and other specialist equipment/resources to support learning.
- Ability to organise, develop and motivate students.
-Ability to self-evaluate learning needs and actively seek learning opportunities.

-Excellent literacy skills.

If you are eager to start your journey as a teacher in an encouraging environment focused on student growth through drama, we would love to hear from you.
