Teacher Additional Support for Learning (7/)

Wallace Hall Academy

Teacher scale - £40, – £50,

We are seeking to recruit enthusiastic and motivated teachers to help shape education provision in Dumfries and Galloway. Our commitment to teachers is evident by the provision of high quality professional learning for all. We are looking to attract and appoint a highly skilled Teacher of Additional Support for Learning at Wallace Hall Academy.

Wallace Hall is a rural school in Thornhill, which is situated 13 miles north of Dumfries. The secondary school roll is just under , the primary roll is around and the roll in our ELC is currently just under 40 pupils. In January we moved into our new school building which has excellent facilities. The school is now run as a 2-18 establishment with one Head Teacher.

Our school motto is Together we grow, learn and achieve. All stakeholders were consulted on the values of the school. Our vision is to provide a safe, happy environment where all learners can enjoy the school experience and can be challenged and encouraged to meet their full academic and vocational potential. We believe that 21st Century learners should develop the skills of communication, compassion, collaboration, critical thinking, creativity, composure, citizenship and curiosity.

We enjoy a close partnership with our five cluster primaries. However, approximately 25% of our school roll comes from out with our catchment area. Our strong academic reputation and continued development of a more inclusive and flexible curriculum are seen as major strengths of the school and appeal to many parents and pupils.

Our school is dynamic and vibrant with a commitment to the development of both pupils and staff and the creation of a positive learning community. We presently have 60 teaching staff and 35 support staff, and have built strong links with a wide variety of partner agencies including the Parent Council, CAMPLE LINE and the local Queensberry Estate. Our pupils and families are supported by a dedicated and professional team including a highly skilled support staff who play an integral part in enhancing our positive ethos and culture of achievement.

We are an innovative school which recognises its strengths and continues to build capability in almost all areas but we are also fully committed to developing new ideas and challenges to ensure that the improvement agenda is always to the fore.

A significant relocation package of up to £ may be available to the successful candidate (Permanent positions only). Please see attached guidance for further information.

Applicants for teaching posts must be registered with the General Teaching Council for Scotland (GTCS), Clerwood House, 96 Clermiston Road, Edinburgh, EH12 6UT in the appropriate sector.
