We are looking to recruit an experienced and inspiring teacher to join our academy to teach Art to pupils in KS3 and KS4. This is a fixed term post of 12 months to cover maternity. Due to continued academy expansion, this could be permanent for the right candidate. The staffing teams are small compared to mainstream schools and the post will suit a teacher who is willing to be flexible to meet the needs of the pupils and the academy. Both secondary Chesterfield sites will have approximately 110 pupils on roll that are not all on site at the same time and classes sizes are small with around 10 pupils. This role will be based at one of the 2 Chesterfield secondary sites.
We welcome applications from candidates who are able to teach engaging but safe lessons to challenging and disengaged KS3 and 4 pupils.
Applicants should have good knowledge and experience of working with disaffected pupils in a school or other alternative setting. An affinity for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity. Applicants should be resilient, have high expectations, and a sense of humour. You must be able to build positive relationships with our pupils and think outside of the box. You will be responsible for contributing to a small staffing team to ensure that the site runs smoothly. A growth mindset and positive ethos are essential characteristics that we are looking for.
An allocated base will be named for payment of mileage and any travel calculation between sites for CPD or for engaging in off -site rewards trips etc. Candidates must have access to a vehicle and car insurance with business use included.
Please see the attached Application pack including a Welcome from The Head Teacher and more information about Esteem North Academy and Esteem MAT.
