United Kingdom Transforming Futures Trust Full time
English Teacher/ Head of Department, ACE Schools

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an English Teacher to join ACE Schools, part of Transforming Futures Trust as the Head of our English Department, at our Bretonside base in Plymouth.

As a teacher you will oversee and shape the lives and education of primary and secondary aged children who receive a personalised curriculum.

There is a strong team of subject specialists at ACE who visit regularly to support teachers at other bases and you will be part of several teams who work collaboratively to ensure our curriculum meets the needs of our pupils and all teaching staff and mentors have what they need to deliver high quality teaching and learning.

Our core curriculum focuses on Maths, English, Science and PSHE and we particularly welcome applications from staff who specialise in these areas. Other areas of the curriculum are often delivered thematically and through practical learning out in the local community.

As Head of Department you will be part of our middle leadership team who oversee and shape the lives and education of pupils who have been permanently excluded from school or who require bespoke and intensive support at one of our eleven sites across the Southwest.

You will be responsible for ensuring English at every base meets each young person’s educational needs and that they are provided with a broad curriculum including sports, activities and healthy living opportunities. In your role you will have an opportunity to fulfil our aspiration of having a comprehensive extra-curricular offer similar to those seen in mainstream settings. You will be ensuring that we continue to develop and grow our curriculum and offer a range of qualifications that young people will achieve in their time with us. Our expectation is that all our year 11 pupils leave with a recognised qualification in English.

You will be supporting both English specialists and non-specialists in delivering high quality teaching and learning. This will involve spending some of your allocated leadership time visiting other bases to provide direct teaching support, training for non-specialists (for example through team teaching), joint planning, moderation of work and providing remote support through our blended learning offer. As part of the role you will be expected to provide leadership and moderation around elements of examination English.

We are keen to meet experienced candidates from special and mainstream settings who want to take on the challenge of supporting young people whose needs can only be met by the exceptional staff at ACE.

Our desire is that every young person has an outstanding experience of English during their time with us and as the leader of this area across the entire school you will be at the forefront of making life changing differences to their educational experience

If you have an interest in working within alternative education, have a desire to help make a difference to the lives of the most vulnerable pupils in Plymouth, Exeter, Cornwall, and become part of arguably the most morally driven group of staff in the country, then we would like to hear from you.
