About The Role We are recruiting an exceptional team of staff to support the next stage of development of a genuinely transformational school. We are looking for candidates who are able to demonstrate the highest expectations of pupil effort and conduct and are able to do so with kindness and warmth. The successful candidates will join a very strong English department and will work collaboratively to shape science provision at the school, embed the school vision and develop an outstanding school that empowers our pupils to take responsibility and drive their own destinies. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to grow with the school. They will be supported in their development and preparation for future roles. Teaching experience will not be a determining factor- we welcome applications from NQTs as well as more experienced candidates. We will develop every staff member that joins our team, providing one-to-one support, coaching and mentoring and access to extensive network training. For more information about our school, please visit: . To arrange a confidential conversation with the Principal about a role in the school, please contact Tabetha Stafford at . Benefits: Leaders at Soane prevent unnecessary demands on teacher time - meetings, marking and administrative tasks are minimised to ensure teachers can be highly effective. The curriculum and resourcing ensure that teachers rarely plan alone: staff time is used where it is most valuable: working as a team to implement the curriculum for the stud ents in our classrooms. We have a truly open-door culture where frequent low-stakes feedback is the norm. We value the input of all of our staff and collaborate to ensure the academy continues to improve as it expands. We frequently host teams of domestic and international educators who come to learn from us and help us shape our provision. Twice as many training days as standard Weekly staff training designed to meet the needs of the school Coaching for every teacher Protected co-planning time Access to high-quality, regular professional development Find out more about the benefits of working for Ark at arkonline.org/careers/why-work-with-us/ About Us We are a new secondary school in Acton which opened in 2021.

Students are entirely bought-in to the values and ethos of the school and know that they are fortunate to attend a school where the quality of education is exceptional and where love, warmth, respect and the highest standards permeate every interaction.
