Description

Do you want to be part of a team where you will help make a lasting impact on our students, many of whom are disadvantaged, and rapidly accelerate their progress?
Do you want to work in a school which focuses heavily on student wellbeing and mental health?

  • Netherwood Academy is an 1116 academy which opened in September 2012, set in an extensive £35 million campus. As part of Astrea Academy Trust, Netherwood Academy is in an exciting period of development._


We are values-driven and our vision is to provide an inclusive, aspirational and academic education for all our students, so that all of them will learn, thrive and lead successful lives.

We are unapologetically ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs.

We want to ensure that all our students have the option to be able to go to university or aspirational alternative.

We are not going to reduce expectations because of a child's background or home life, or because they are new to English or have a special education need.

In fact, the opposite is true. It is our job to redouble our efforts to help children overcome these barriers so that they can flourish.


We value our staff highly and treat workload very seriously. Our systems are high leverage, ensuring you can really focus on your core purpose - supporting students, in a sustainable way, unhindered by bureaucracy or poor behaviour.


What we offer:


  • Huge support and progression opportunities
  • A dedicated safeguarding and wellbeing team
  • Excellent support from the Astrea Trust Central team
  • Disruptionfree learning and a 'warm/strict' behaviour system
  • Highly visible/supportive senior leaders who have your back
  • Excellent ongoing CPD, career development and promotion opportunities across the Astrea South Yorkshire region
  • An unrivalled professional progression model

What we are looking for:


  • A highly effective practitioner, who is able to motivate and encourage colleagues to share our vision
  • Aligned to our values and mission. If you are the type of person who fits with our culture, you will love working here
  • Someone who passionately believes that all children can achieve, no matter what their starting point, background or needs.

Interested in applying?


If this is something you are interested in, looking for a new challenge, have a passion for education or maybe all of the above, take a look at the Applicant Brief to find out more about the role and how to apply.


We actively welcome visits and would be delighted to show you around our academy to appreciate fully our excellent learning environment (details in the applicant brief).
