Teacher of Social Sciences

This could not be a more exciting time to lead within the St Mark's family. Following our full graded Ofsted inspection in May 2024, St Mark’s CoE Academy achieved an Outstanding judgment in all areas of the framework. During the inspection, “pupils said the school’s values of Love, Hope and Trust are ‘not just words’ but are demonstrated by all members of the community.” Inspectors also reported that “working relationships between staff and pupils are warm, caring and respectful. This means that pupils behave exceptionally well and are very happy and safe. Do you have the highest expectations for every member of the school community and believe in transformational education for all, irrespective of starting points and background? Are you able to win hearts and minds with your inspirational vision for school improvement, underpinned by the school’s inclusive Christian ethos and values, Love, Hope and Trust? Are you passionate about high-quality teaching and learning and a life changing quality of education? If you can answer yes to these three questions, we would love to hear from you. We are seeking to appoint an inspiring and enthusiastic teacher of Social Sciences, to deliver across the Sociology and Health & Social Care curricula, up to KS5. This is an exciting opportunity for a values driven educator to contribute to an established and highly successful department. We are looking for someone who believes in building strong relationships with our students and who is willing to enrich and challenge through effective planning and delivery, to enable them in reaching their God-given potential. You would be expected to develop, plan and deliver highly effective learning experiences to all students across Key stage 4 and 5 and demonstrate expertise in the fields of assessment, marking and feedback. With our outstanding commitment to developing new teachers, we are delighted to invite applications from both ECTs and experienced teachers. Visits are warmly
