We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and hard-working Teaching Assistant to join our academy as soon as possible on a term time only permanent contract.
De Warenne Academy is a rapidly improving school. We have the highest ambitions for all and work closely in partnership with parents and students to ensure every child can fulfil their potential. In summer 2016, we celebrated the best results in the history of the academy, with 61% achieving GCSE passes in maths and English at grades A*-C, alongside the highest A Level results in Doncaster. Last year we focused on raising results across the entire curriculum and we saw GCSE attainment surge to meet similar standards across the vast majority of subjects. We aim to intervene quickly to support students at risk of falling behind and adapt the curriculum to help them. In Key Stage Three, we have nurture groups, ensuring that all students are taught in a supportive environment which meets their needs, enabling them to thrive and make progress.
De Warenne Academy is an incredibly vibrant and rewarding place to work, where staff and students know that education is hard work but also fun and enjoyable at the same time. If you take the opportunity to visit the academy you will see the safe, calm and well-organised environment along with the growing pride and rising aspirations very evident in our students.
I am extremely proud to work with such a talented team of students and staff, who work tirelessly to make De Warenne the highly successful and rapidly improving academy that it is today. Should you wish to be part of a team of staff that is hungry to move the academy to the next level then De Warenne is the academy for you. If you feel that you have the skills, qualities, experience, drive and passion to join us on our journey of continued improvement, I very much look forward to receiving your application.
We look forward to you joining our dedicated and supportive team.
