    Default job background
    Description

    This is an exciting opportunity for an exceptional teacher to use their abilities and knowledge, to work alongside the Director of Learning for PE and Science in the development of our new secondary school. We moved to our new permanent site in the Chesterwell development in Summer 2023. The post will combine the opportunity to be part of an exciting and dynamic new school with the benefits of being part of the Alpha Trust, a supportive and high performing MAT.

    The successful candidate will work with the Senior Leadership Team to establish a school in which all students thrive. We are committed to excellence in all that we do and are unashamedly ambitious for the future success of our students.

    The PE Department at Trinity is a small, supportive and collaborative team. As a new school, we have a wide range of modern equipment and facilities to support learning. We are also fully committed to a wide co-curricular offer, in which the PE department play a key role. This opportunity comes at a time where we will be moving into our first year of KS4 teaching. This means the successful candidate will be able to develop their knowledge of curriculum design and development and will play an integral role in preparing our first cohort of students to undertake their GCSEs in 2026. As part of this post, the successful applicant would also be required to teach some key Stage 3 Science. The Science Department is highly supportive and collaborative with a strong emphasis on modelling and retrieval practice seen throughout our lessons. At KS3, we follow a logically designed curriculum which prepares students for a seamless transition into KS4. Science is a very popular subject at the school with our Science Club consistently oversubscribed. As a new and expanding school, there may be career development opportunities in coming years.

    We are seeking to appoint an outstanding Teacher of PE and Science, who will:

    • Be unashamedly ambitious for the future success of every child
    • Place the highest priority on outstanding teaching and learning
    • Model excellence and demonstrate a clear commitment to the school and its community
    • Have the vision and ability to help develop outstanding teaching and learning
    • Be a passionate advocate for our school community

    If you are looking for an exciting, challenging and rewarding role within a supportive trust and have an unshakeable commitment to improving the lives of children, we look forward to receiving your application.

    Appointment of the right candidate is also offered with priority admission for your child (subject to other criteria being met).

    Closing date: 9.00am on Tuesday 7 May 2024.

    We may choose to close the advert early if we fill the vacancy before this date. Early application is therefore recommended.

    Trinity School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Any appointment is subject to references and an Enhanced DBS Disclosure.
