Curriculum leaders at KAA are central to the school's operation. They enjoy significant freedom and autonomy over how to deliver their subject and develop their teams of teachers - more so than is true of many schools. They are expert teachers in their own right, able to model outstanding practice, and articulate a clear curriculum vision for others to follow. This role will be suitable for an outstanding classroom teacher who is ready to step-up to MLT, or an existing subject lead looking for a new challenge in an outstanding school. Newly promoted subject leaders will complete a year as "Lead Teacher" before being promoted to "Head of Department", subject to performance.
