Selby, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom Brayton Academy Full time

We're looking for an inspiring and ambitious Teacher of Modern Foreign Languages (French), with exceptional teaching ability to join our 'Outstanding in all areas' academy. Can you motivate students to achieve their best? Are you passionate about instilling a 'Growth Mindset' and nurturing students to see challenges as opportunities to flourish? If so, we'd love to hear from you.

Brayton Academy was awarded 'Outstanding in all areas' in our most recent Ofsted inspection which highlighted our students' exemplary behaviour and excellent attitudes to learning, our outstanding Leadership Team and the substantial progress made by students in lesson thanks to skilful teaching. Our GCSE results are 'well above national average' and our academy is the school of choice within our community. This is an excellent time to join our thriving academy.

Brayton Academy is proud to be part of The Rodillian Multi Academy Trust. The Rodillian ethos of resilience, a Growth Mindset and Positive Discipline has helped to transform schools – from their culture to their Ofsted ratings – as well as the lives of students and teachers.

At the Rodillian Multi Academy Trust we are committed to doing things differently – creating schools that students want to attend, and where teachers want to work. We raise aspiration levels for staff, students and schools by encouraging creativity in the classroom, and by giving our staff freedom to experiment with their teaching, as part of our pioneering curriculum. All of this is guided by our Positive Discipline policy – a traditional approach to behaviour management.

The successful candidate will enjoy access to high quality CPD. You will also be joining a happy Trust where 95% of colleagues agreed that they enjoy working here and 92% would recommend us to a friend or colleague (taken from 2022 staff wellbeing survey). Our commitment to the staff wellbeing means we prioritise staff mental health, drive down unnecessary workload and support our colleagues to progress in their careers.

This role provides a real opportunity for you to make your mark, and as a growing Trust with an excellent reputation and access to high-quality CPD for all, there are always opportunities for career development.
