Job description
Darton Academy are looking to appoint a Teacher of PE to join our academy in September 2023 on a full time permanent basis. The ability to offer Science or Maths as a second subject would be advantageous.
This role presents a wonderful opportunity for any candidate who wishes to take their career to the next level. You will join a talented team and also benefit from all the advantages of working for a multi-academy trust.
In 2022 our results were considerably above national average with Progress 8 at 0.4 overall. We currently offer GCSE PE and OCR Sports Studies. The ability to offer science or maths as a second subject at Key Stage 3 will be advantageous.
You will have the opportunity to work with experienced leaders to support you in your role and access professional development opportunities on a regular basis. We have outstanding sports facilities and are keen to promote participation at every level. If you love your subject and are passionate about developing pedagogy and practice, then this is the job for you.
Darton Academy is an exciting place to learn and as soon as you enter the building you can feel a buzz of enthusiasm. There is a sense of purpose, and the academy is calm and orderly, with state-of-the-art facilities. We are a close-knit community, and we pride ourselves on knowing our pupils well and doing our utmost to ensure everyone fulfils their true potential.
We aim to ensure that our pupils can learn in a safe and supportive environment, where everyone values academic achievement and has a positive attitude to learning. As a result of our journey of continuous improvement, our pupils achieved the “best ever GCSE results” in the summer of 2022, and we continue to go from strength to strength. In February 2023 Ofsted graded us Good with an outstanding personal development offer.
We strongly encourage our pupils to take part in enrichment activities so they can discover all their strengths and talents, and run over forty clubs, as well as pupil support sessions and interventions. We also regularly organise whole school events and educational visits so that our pupils have a broad experience of learning beyond the classroom.
We believe in rewarding pupils for good behaviour, attendance and achievement and run a number of celebration events throughout the year, from “Super September” to our summer “DartFest”. We place learning at the heart of everything we do and use our core values of respect, responsibility, and resilience to build a positive ethos.
Ultimately, we understand that our pupils are most successful when they feel happy, valued, challenged, and supported to achieve their very best. We believe this also applies to our staff. We are passionate about giving people the chance to develop and progress their careers, and also offer an extensive range of opportunities, incentives and benefits including:
- A staff rewards budget
- Membership of the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) (opt out available)
- Access to the Delta benefits website with discounts on retailers, holidays, days out, etc.
- Access to Cycle to Work scheme, car leasing and technology scheme
- Access to our Employee Assistance helpline for free and confidential advice
- Training and development opportunities including NPQs
Visits to the Academy are warmly welcomed by appointment. Please call the academy to arrange your visit on 01226 232306 or if you would like an informal chat about the role.
In accordance with DfE Keeping Children Safe in Education 2022, an online search will be completed on all shortlisted applicants prior to interview. Any relevant information will be discussed further with the applicant during the recruitment process.
