At The Lowry Academy we have high expectations and believe every single child can achieve.

Our staff are highly professional, and we are relentlessly ensuring those high standards are maintained so teachers can teach, and students can learn.

We prepare children for future success and ask students to live our values of Aspiration, Respect, Confidence, Creativity and Resilience.

To maintain this strong culture, we have non-negotiable expectations:

All students arrive on time for their lessons. Students must arrive on time to be admitted to the lesson.
All students are expected to have full equipment for every lesson.
All students must think hard and work hard in lessons. Students are not allowed to opt out of their learning.
The school has a straightforward approach to disruption to lessons. We follow a warnremove policy where any student who disrupts learning, having been previously warned and given the opportunity to correct their behaviour, including opting out of work, is removed from the lesson.
The Academy has zero tolerance for any act of defiance or disrespect towards staff or other students.

We are not just about academic success; we work hard to ensure that we role model the right behavior's and provide opportunities for our students to develop the skills and understanding required to both be personally successful in the future workplace but also have a positive impact on the world.

Our aim is to prepare our students for adulthood and to be good citizens with high ambitions and the courage to exceed in their future.

If you are passionate and share the same desire about changing the lives of students, we would like to hear from you.

The role

We are looking for a passionate and talented leader, who has the knowledge of what excellent English teaching looks like, and the ability to motivate and develop others.

You will be working closely with the Head of Department to lead the English team to achieve positive student progress and outcomes.

We are a caring yet ambitious academy at the heart of our local community.

We provide all our students with opportunities to strive toward academic excellence and develop interpersonal skills in order to make a positive contribution to society.

We have a calm and supportive environment characterised by respectful relationships between staff and students.

Through our clear focus on delivering excellent academic standards for all students, we put high-quality teaching and learning at the core of our approach.

As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed.

We invest in our staff's wellbeing.

Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme.

It's an ethos we call, the best in everyone.
