About the School:

The Rural Enterprise Academy is based in a safe, rural setting where pupils have access to a range of high-quality facilities as well as the great outdoors.

Our curriculum makes the most of both, ensuring pupils are able to develop the skills and knowledge they need for a career in our specialism.

We are a small school with only two classes of 30 students per year from Year 7 to Year 11.

All students and staff know each other and as such we attract many students who thrive in a quieter, smaller environment than the usual hustle and bustle of a large secondary school.

We form a close community of like-minded teachers and learners and together are able to achieve fantastic results.

Our pupils make our school unique and we are very proud of them.

Through our research-based approach to teaching and learning, we believe that each and every pupil has the ability to excel regardless of their starting points.

Employee benfits:

• Access to first class CPD opportunities.
• Genuine opportunities for career progression with 7 schools within the academy
• Employee Assistance Programme
• Pension automatic enrolment into the to the Local Government Pension Scheme

Being part of Penk Valley Academy Trust:

Penk Valley Academy Trust is the local academy Trust for the following schools: Marshbrook First School, Princefield First School, St John's First School, St Mary & St Chad CE First School, Penkridge Middle School, Wolgarston High School and The Rural Enterprise Academy.

The Trust's vision and ethos is encapsulated in our motto 'Learning Together'.

Our main aim is to work collaboratively and take collective responsibility for ensuring that every child and young person in our Trust receives an excellent education, achieves high outcomes and realises their potential.

All members of staff work incredibly hard to provide the very best education for every child in our care.

The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment and responsibility.

Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.

All staff working in the School during the school day will have contact with children and will therefore be in regulated activity.

The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
