In our school students are ready to learn and 'low level disruption is rare'. Ofsted were impressed with the excellent behaviour of our students both in lessons and around the school. We pride ourselves on being an 'academy of opportunity' for all with excellent relationships.

Every member of staff receives bespoke support and development through our in-house coaching programme as well as additional professional development opportunities to promote further progress and career enhancement. All departments receive joint planning time as part of the timetable (in addition to PPA time) to enable best practice to be shared. We are committed to challenging, supporting and developing staff and students to 'Aspire to Greatness' so that we become the best that we can be. In a recent survey 98% of staff said they were proud to be a member of staff at The Dorcan Academy with 95% stating that they enjoy working here. 95% said that they support the vision of the academy.

As a member of staff you will be highly valued and will be supported to flourish within the Music Department as well as the academy as a whole.

We will offer you:
