Teachers - Alderman Knight School
Tewkesbury
School: Alderman Knight School (Special)
Address: Ashchurch Road, Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire
Title: Teachers - Alderman Knight School
Grade: MPS/UPS
Allowances: SEN 1
Hours: Full Time
Contract: Permanent
Closing Date: 14/04/2024
Interview Date: 22/04/2024
Start Date: 02/09/2024
Governors are looking to appoint additional teaching staff for September 2024.
Across our secondary phases we run a mainstream model with pupils following a subject specific two-week timetable, with six lessons per day. Whenever we are recruiting, what we are looking for most, is a talented, hard-working, enthusiastic and outstanding teacher, who really wants to make a difference to our amazing young people, on a daily basis. However, at this time due to changes in staffing and our curriculum offer we require additional teaching capacity to teach Religion and Worldviews from KS3 to KS5 and Food Technology in KS3.
Therefore, if you feel you could teach one or other of these subjects (or both!) and you have a desire to teach and work in a school like ours then please do apply!
We want positive staff who are passionate about improving outcomes for all young people with additional needs and who have consistently high expectations of themselves as well as us and their pupils, and consistently deliver exciting, memorable and most importantly high quality lessons that help our pupils make excellent progress.
We follow the National Curriculum in all subjects so we would require you to have a good knowledge and understanding of the relevant curriculum and the ability to differentiate learning experiences to match the needs of the individual. You will also be a highly motivated, energetic person with a desire to become involved in all aspects of school life.
All our staff need to be flexible in their approach and where necessary and appropriate, teach additional or different subjects to meet the needs of the pupils. We do always look to help teachers work to their strengths. This ensures we have a team of teachers who can deliver consistently high-quality lessons and a meaningful and carefully structured curriculum. However, it is important to us that our staff feel confident teaching and working with all our young people and so we provide plenty of opportunities to grow and develop knowledge and skills, including working in different key stages and providing high quality CPD.
Teachers are also form tutors and this pastoral role is a key role for teachers at AKS. Classes on average have 12 pupils and each class will be supported by a number of teaching assistants, dependent on the needs of the group and the subject being taught.
Although special school experience is not essential, candidates will need to be able to demonstrate to us why they want to work in this area. In our secondary phase pupils follow a mainstream secondary model and are taught for many subjects by specialist teachers in specialist rooms. In the primary phase we follow a primary model. We welcome applications from ECTs as well as experienced teaching staff from both primary and secondary mainstream schools.
So, if you are passionate about teaching young people with SEND and are looking for a new, exciting and immensely rewarding role, please have a look at what we can offer – we might just be that next step, or even first step, in your career, that you are hoping for!
A visit to our school and an opportunity to meet our children and staff is the best way to find out more about us and whether this could be the post for you. If you would like a visit to school, please contact the school with your request.
