    Lead Practitioner: Music - Rotherham, United Kingdom - Astrea Academy Dearne

    Default job background
    Full time
    Description

    Do you want to be part of a team where you will help make a lasting impact on our scholars and rapidly accelerate their progress?

    Do you want to work in a school where you are free to teach, with impeccable scholar behaviour and unhindered by bureaucracy?

    The Lead Practitioner will raise standards of scholar attainment and achievement within the whole curriculum area and work with the Performing Arts department to be accountable for scholar progress and development.

    This is an excellent opportunity for an experienced music teacher interested in middle leadership.

    Astrea Academy Dearne is an 11-16 secondary academy situated in Barnsley, with around 1150 students. We are within commutable distance from Wakefield, Leeds, Doncaster and Sheffield and are a proud member of the Astrea Academy Trust family of schools. We have the highest aspiration for our students to achieve their very best and grow both as individuals and as members of their community. We are a truly comprehensive and inclusive academy. This is reflected in our approach to all areas of our work.

    We are committed to a knowledge-rich curriculum and a traditional approach to teaching, behaviour and culture. We believe that schools must teach powerful knowledge, 'the best that has been thought and said' and an 'entitlement curriculum' for all. We believe in explicit instruction and have been greatly influenced by Lemov's 'Teach Like A Champion', Rosenshine and recent developments in cognitive science. We believe that the creation of a scholarly culture that is warm and strict, disciplined and joyful, where there is 'purpose not power', ensuring impeccable behaviour, where teachers can focus on teaching and pupils can focus on learning, underpins everything.

    We are values-driven and our vision is to provide an inclusive, aspirational and academic education for all our students, so that all of them will learn, thrive and lead successful lives. We are unapologetically ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs. We want to ensure that all our students have the option to be able to go to university or aspirational alternative. We are not going to reduce expectations because of a child's background or home life, or because they are new to English or have a special education need. In fact, the opposite is true. It is our job to redouble our efforts to help children overcome these barriers so that they can flourish.

    What we offer:

    · Huge support and progression opportunities

    · A knowledge rich curriculum, built on 'powerful knowledge' and a traditional T&L approach built around Rosenshine and TLAC

    · Collaborative planning with centralised, shared units of work and resources

    · An excellent music curriculum and resources

    · A feedback policy focused on whole class feedback – no onerous marking policies

    · Disruption-free learning and a 'warm/strict' behaviour system

    · Highly visible/supportive senior leaders who have your back

    · Centralised detentions, including homework detentions (you do not need to organise/run/chase them at all)

    · No formal graded lesson observations – just ongoing 'no-stakes' instructional coaching, helping you to continuously develop

    · Excellent ongoing CPD, career development and promotion opportunities across the Astrea South Yorkshire region

    · Opportunity to complete NPQs

    · An unrivalled professional progression model

    What we are looking for:

    The successful candidate will be:

    · A highly effective professional, who is able to motivate and encourage colleagues to share our vision

    · Aligned to our values and mission. If you are the type of person who fits with our culture, you will love working here.

    · Someone who passionately believes that all children can achieve, no matter what their starting point, background or needs. Someone that does not make excuses for what children can achieve.

    It is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious practitioner wishing to further develop their career.
