    ARK ST ALBAN'S ACADEMY
    Ark St Alban's Academy
    Head of Geography


    Contract:
    Permanent

    Full-time
    September 2024 (flexible for the right candidate)

    Ark St Alban's Academy is seeking to appoint a skilled and enthusiastic teacher to lead its rapidly expanding Geography department.

    A small but strong team of Geography teachers are rapidly improving pupil progress in Geography across all key stages.

    In Key Stage 3, pupils have two Geography lessons each week and their teachers collaborate with colleagues across the Ark network in teaching and developing Geography Mastery, a knowledge-rich, trust-wide curriculum.

    In Key Stage Four, there are a growing number of classes studying GCSE Geography and it is hoped that this will lead to the continued growth in the number of pupils choosing to pursue Geography at A-Level in our sixth form.

    Providing all pupils with an academic and rigorous languages education is central to our university preparatory curriculum.

    Our Geography department provides pupils with a thorough and considered insight into the wonders and complexities of our planet.

    Pupils are led through the exploration of a wide and diverse range of places and environments and fieldwork plays a key role in both leading pupils to understand the complex relationships within the world around them, and in allowing them frequent opportunities to practice thinking and acting like skilled Geographers.

    In this role, the successful candidate will receive direct support from the senior leadership team through line-management.

    As part of Ark Schools, all colleagues also have access to exceptional professional development and training opportunities, including NPQs through the Ark Teaching School Hub and Ambition Institute.

    Our school consistently secures excellent outcomes for our pupils.

    We consistently guide pupils to GCSE and A-Level outcomes which place our cohorts in the top 10% of schools nationally on many measures, including those for the progress of disadvantaged pupils.

    Our school serves pupils from central Birmingham. The percentage of our cohort eligible for the Pupil Premium is the eighth highest in the country. There are very few communities in the UK who need great teachers more than ours.

    Our school prepares pupils to succeed at elite universities, with our alumni proudly representing our community at prestigious destinations including Cambridge University, Durham University and the London School of Economics.

    5% higher than main pay scale.
    Generous pension scheme.
    Gym discounts – offering up to 40%.
    Access to Employee Assistance Programme – providing free, confidential counselling, legal advice and a range of different support.

    Please visit our website and submit your application.
