Bury, United Kingdom Elton High Full time

School: The Elton High School

Post Title: Teacher of English x2 (Fixed-term and Permanent)

We are looking to appoint two Teachers of English- one permanent and one temporary (to cover maternity leave). The positions can be either 1.0 or 0.8 (please specify in the supporting statement which is preferred). We are looking for enthusiastic and energetic teachers to join our supportive and high-performing team. We welcome applications from both ECT (Early Careers Teachers) and experienced teachers alike.

The Elton High School is a significantly oversubscribed school with a tradition of excellence. We have a history of high achievement with results regularly placing us as amongst the highest performing schools in Bury LA and amongst the top proportion of schools in the country. The successful applicant will be part of a core subject and department team who are a fantastic set of professionals, wholly supportive and collaborative who generate outstanding teaching and learning practice.

Our most recent Ofsted inspection (February 2022) reiterated the strengths that had been confirmed in the previous report (2017) and are firmly embedded across our school. The inspection team noted that ‘pupils are proud to attend’ Elton with an established culture of ‘high aspirations for what pupils can achieve’. Our students achieve well, with the inspectors being particularly impressed with the climate for learning and behaviour of our students – their ‘positive behaviour at all times is characteristic of the respectful culture of this school [and] their positive conduct reflects leaders’ high standards’.

The English Department is a collegiate and supportive team, who have worked hard to develop an ambitious curriculum. English teachers make use of shared resources and there are dedicated slots throughout the year for collaborative work. These vacant posts could be filled on a full-time or part-time basis (0.8) and applicants should state which of these they would prefer in the supporting statement of the application.

Recent successes of our school have been based on a relentless focus on teaching and learning. We have a strong system of staff training in place aimed at developing the very best practice while we have a constant focus on ensuring that all of our team feel supported to give of their best and to have a work life balance. We pride ourselves on taking a proactive approach to promoting the wellbeing of everyone in our school community. Our teachers enjoy working here, so this is a rare opportunity to join our staff in a key subject area, contributing to our next steps in pushing Elton to realise its potential as one of the very best schools in the Greater Manchester area.

The school has excellent transport links with the M60, M61, M62 and M66 Motorways crisscrossing the area plus the Metrolink Light Rapid Transit system with a fast and frequent service from Bury centre through Manchester city centre to East Didsbury.

The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare or children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff to share this commitment. Appointment is subject to a satisfactory disclosure at the appropriate level under the Disclosure and Barring Service.

In line with safer recruitment, please ensure that your application covers your full employment history and there is a reason noted for any gaps in employment. Successful candidates will be asked to provide relevant references for the past ten years and character references will not be accepted.
