    Description
    About this Role

    We have an outstanding opportunity for a highly effective and motivated experienced Geography teacher to lead a vibrant, successful department at the core of our friendly and forward thinking Humanities Faculty.

    Are you an inspirational and enthusiastic Geography Teacher looking for a new challenge? Do you have the teaching skills and personality required to motivate and energise learners? Are you passionate about the Geography Curriculum and nurturing the next generation of Geographers?

    This is an exciting time to join our enthusiastic, passionate Geography team as their leader. The team are highly motivated and dedicated to improving learners' outcomes. As Head of Geography, your focus will be on leading a team of Geography experts and supporting them in developing their Geographical knowledge and classroom practice. You will also have the opportunity to work collaboratively with the Head of Religious Studies and Head of Humanities Faculty.

    The successful candidate will be capable of inspiring learners through their passion for the subject and have an excitement and drive for teaching and learning and a desire to make a difference to leaners' achievement. Due to Washwood Heath Academy being an All through Academy, there is potential to teach learners in all Key Stages and work with colleagues in the Primary phase to develop a better understanding of how learners develop geographical skills in Key Stage 1 and 2.

    This comes at an exciting time within our development of Washwood Heath Multi Academy Trust, a family of 7 schools (one all-through, two secondaries and four primaries) serving the East of Birmingham. We believe that we are stronger working in partnership to serve the children and families of our community.

    The successful candidates will:

    Promote a love of lifelong learning

    Have excellent leadership, organisational and management skills

    Demonstrate the ability to build on success and manage change

    Show commitment to a culture of continuous improvement that promotes excellence for staff and pupils alike and builds on our current Ofsted rating

    Demonstrate excellent inter-personal and communication skills with the ability to articulate a clear vision for the areas you manage.

    We can offer you:

    · A collaborative and inclusive culture, where team members will upskill you and give you regular opportunities to learn from each other in a safe and collaborative environment, both within your schools and Trust-wide.

    · An opportunity to undertake structured CPD via access to the National College online CPD platform and/or apprenticeships such as Level 7 Senior Leaders Masters, with regular twilights.

    · Access to Career Pathways and Pledge to help you plan for and make your goals a reality via our Professional Growth and Performance (PPG) process.

    · A wellbeing culture, with paid and unpaid time off to support life events via our Life Leave Policy, access to a Wellbeing Champion and the opportunity to participate in our annual staff wellbeing survey with Edurio, so we know and can respond to views.

    · Access to 24/7 Employee Assistance Programme (EAP), which includes confidential counselling, access to wellbeing advice and a lifestyle app called "My Possible Self".

    · Access to a suite of supportive policies, such as Life Leave, Wellbeing, Career Break and Family Friendly.

    · Access to a generous pension scheme known as the Teachers' Pension Scheme (LGPS).

    · Access to a comprehensive employee rewards package including Long Service Awards, Employee Referral Scheme, Cycle to Work Scheme and contribution to glasses and eye-sight tests for eligible display screen users.

    · Opportunity to be part of key Trust-wide collaborative groups such as the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI working group) and Wellbeing working groups, including menopause support and neurodiversity support.

    · Onsite parking at all schools.
