Please Note: The application deadline for this job has now passed.

What is the job role?

Required for September 2021 or earlier

Why should you commit your future to the children of Ernesford Grange Community Academy?

I asked some of our Ernesford colleagues earlier this term what is was that made them love working here quite so much and this is just a snippet of what they said:

We are a genuine family where the staff care just as much about each other as they do about our wonderful students
SLT actually trust staff to work and do not micro manage everything
It feels like the responsibilities during the tough times and decisions are shared to make it a little easier on everyone
We have a dedicated Director of Staff Well-Being who genuinely wants to make sure we are all happy and enjoying our time at school
SLT listen to you and actually take on board suggestions on how to keep improving
We care about others. Really care. Not the care that you do because you have to, or because you feel obliged to.
Engaging and challenging schemes of work in place which eases workload as they require differentiating according to group need rather than re-creating. These are reviewed constantly so if we need to think of something new we share the workload as a team.

The staff survey from June 2020 highlighted that 99% of colleagues felt that staff morale was good or outstanding, 98% felt the support they received from their line manager was good or outstanding and 95% of staff felt that the management of pupil behaviour was good or outstanding. It is our aim to get 100% for each of these categories in the next survey.

So, if you are interested in joining a new family, one where you will be nurtured, challenged, developed and improved then maybe it is time to get in touch.
