Ernulf Academy is on a mission to be the most improved school across Cambridgeshire.
Do you want to be part of the journey to transform a community school?
Ernulf Academy is seeking to appoint a full time Lead Practitioner of English to join a successful and thriving subject team. We are looking for someone who can support the Head of English in the leadership and development of the department and further develop the role and contribution of English at the academy. The successful candidate would join a team of subject-specialists who are experienced, reflective and enthusiastic and maintaining high levels of behaviour and discipline. The lead practitioner will assist in the raising standards of student attainment and achievement within the department, monitoring and supporting student progress and supporting staff development to meet those aims, so that all our young people experience a well-taught and ambitious curriculum.
We are committed to a knowledge-rich curriculum and a traditional approach to teaching, behaviour and culture. We believe that schools must teach powerful knowledge, 'the best that has been thought and said' and an 'entitlement curriculum' for all. We believe in explicit instruction and have been greatly influenced by Lemov's 'Teach Like A Champion', Rosenshine and recent developments in cognitive science. We believe that the creation of a scholarly culture that is warm and strict, disciplined and joyful, where there is 'purpose not power', ensuring impeccable behaviour, where teachers can focus on teaching and pupils can focus on learning, underpins everything.
We are values-driven and our vision is to provide an inclusive, aspirational and academic education for all our students, so that all them will learn, thrive and lead successful lives. We are unapologetically ambitious for every child, no matter what their background, prior attainment or needs. We want to ensure that all of our students have the option to be able to go to university or aspirational alternative.
At Astrea, our commitment is to inspire beyond measure. This core commitment drives everything that we do. Education is also about much more than just attainment. To deliver this, we focus on encouraging and nurturing our REACH values: Resilience, Empathy, Aspiration, Contribution and Happiness in all of our children and young people. We call these the Astrea Dispositions.
We value our staff highly, and treat workload very seriously. Our systems are high leverage, ensuring you can really focus on your core purpose – teaching, in a sustainable way, unhindered by bureaucracy or poor behaviour.
What we offer:
A salary scale which is circa 1% above the national pay scale A knowledge rich curriculum, built on 'powerful knowledge' and a traditional T&L approach built around Rosenshine and TLAC Collaborative planning with centralised, shared units of work and resources Excellent support from the Astrea Trust Central team A feedback policy focused on whole class feedback – no onerous marking policies Disruption-free learning and a 'warm/strict' behaviour system Highly visible/supportive senior leaders who have your back Centralised detentions, including homework detentions (you do not need to organise/run/chase them at all) No formal graded lesson observations – just ongoing 'no-stakes' instructional coaching, helping you to continuously develop Excellent ongoing CPD, career development and promotion opportunities across the Astrea Cambridgeshire region Opportunity to complete NPQs What we are looking for:The successful candidate will be:
A highly effective and inspiring senior leader, who is able to motivate and encourage colleagues to the shared vision Aligned to our values and mission. If you are the type of person who fits with our culture, you will love working here Someone who passionately believes that all children can achieve, no matter what their starting point, background or needs. Someone that does not make excuses for what children can achieve. Interested in applying?If this is something you're interested in, looking for a new challenge, have a passion for education or maybe all of the above, take a look at the Applicant Brief to find out more about the role to apply.
We actively welcome visits and would be delighted to show you around our Academy to fully appreciate our excellent learning environment. Please contact the Principal, Mark Neesam for any further information prior to application:
