Thank you for your
interest in the post of Teacher of English at Arnold Academy – a middle school,
and part of the Pyramid Schools Trust.
You will be joining our
warm and welcoming English team in an exciting phase of development. This
provides you with a great opportunity to contribute to the future of the
department as we plan for the next 3-5 years of success.
Arnold Academy has
approximately 720 pupils across four years. Pupils consistently attain well in English.
The school uses Accelerated Reader as a vehicle to help inspire and excite our
pupils with their reading; we are extremely ambitious in achieving a positive
culture for reading at Arnold. We host visiting authors each term to lead
assemblies, meet and greet pupils, and share their books. We have recently
invested in a new, bigger library space which benefits from a view onto our
‘quiet area’ courtyard with canopy. We have a thriving wider curriculum
enrichment programme, in which all members of the English team play an active
role. Classrooms are calm and pupils are focussed. The successful applicant
will enjoy a solid platform on which to continue to grow the love of their
subject.
We strongly recommend tours of the Academy and a chance for you to meet us prior to application, although this is not essential. Please email admin@aa.pstrust.co.uk in order to arrange a tour.
Arnold Academy is committed to safeguarding the welfare of young people.
All appointments are subject to enhanced DBS checks.
Online checks will be completed in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education.
