Gateshead, United Kingdom Gateshead Council Full time

Year 8 - Year 11 on Rotation

The Year Leader will take responsibility for the academic progress and pastoral care of all students within the year group. They will embrace, promote and actively develop the academy’s vision and values to personalise the educational provision for every student within Lord Lawson of Beamish Academy. They will be proactive and professional and will always maintain confidentiality. They will also ensure that all safeguarding procedures are enforced in accordance with the academy’s safeguarding policy. They will be responsible for the work of the Deputy Year Leader and will work closely with other colleagues. They will take a leading role in promoting the school to prospective students and their parents, and they will share a leading role in organising transition points for students, for example, KS4 Options and Sixth Form transition.

We are a school that is an excellent place to work and learn. Our ambition is to offer outstanding education - within the classroom and far beyond - that engages and stretches all our students. Our staff are energetic, committed and able; our leaders are strategic and well motivated; our governors are hugely supportive and suitably ambitious. The school is full, and parents want their children to do well. We have a sixth form that is small but focused and successful. Our facilities are outstanding and well maintained.

On a usual school day, there’s so much going on at Lord Lawson Our students are well known locally for their engagement in an awe-inspiring variety of sporting activities, and our visual and performing arts are wonderfully strong. Students take advantage of more than fifty lunchtime and after-school activities each week, and they have raised thousands of pounds for local and national charities. Opportunities for student leadership abound. Classrooms are calm and settled: the atmosphere is purposeful. Our outstanding professional development programme for staff is evidence-led and flexible; staff at all levels value the opportunities that we provide for them to discuss and improve their professional skills. We work very closely with Ambition Institute for our NPQs and teacher development, as well as with Teach First and local universities. Currently, 44% of our teaching staff are involved in Ambition Institute’s _Transforming Teaching _programme, and all our staff are engaged in tailored professional development. In a competitive market, we are a school of choice for new teachers. This is a pivotal and exciting time to become part of our middle leadership team.

Our students deserve the best and most effective leadership we can give them, so they can be happy and successful, both now and in the future. Working together, colleagues at this school have been very successful in improving our culture for the benefit of our students. Attendance increased by almost 3% last year, and behaviour has been transformed. These improvements have enabled teaching and learning to be much more effective. Against a local and national picture of decline and difficulty, we are continuing to develop our culture, and year leaders are a key part of future improvements.

The pastoral team at Lord Lawson of Beamish Academy includes a range of expertise and knowledge that supports our students to grow, learn and succeed. Ian Cooper is the Deputy Principal for Pastoral Care and Inclusion: he holds overall responsibility for the pastoral team. His leadership is supported by Paul Walsh (Assistant Principal - Behaviour), Alex Rayner (Assistant Principal - Safeguarding and Attendance) and Helen Potter (Assistant Principal - SENDCo). This allows the pastoral team to remain proactive, supporting our students throughout the school day. The pastoral team also includes attendance officers, school counsellor and mental health mentor, and the learning support room team. Pastoral staff have strong supportive relationships with external agencies and partners, which enable them to safeguard and support students with the different challenges they face. In summary, you will be part of a well-resourced and proactive team.

As a Year Leader, you will quickly become part of our mission to transform the education and life chances for around 1350 children in Birtley, on the southern edge of Gateshead. You will join an ambitious and collegiate team of senior and middle leaders, who are passionately committed to improving the school for the benefit of its students. Before its ‘Good’ judgement, the school had two ‘Requires Improvement’ judgements from Ofsted (February 2017 and June 2019). I joined the school as Principal in June 2019, immediately following the second ‘RI’ judgement. With a new and reinvigorated leadership team, I have led a transformational programme of school improvement. Our school has benefited from substantial support, working with outstanding local partners. Finances are now sustainable, and lines of accountability are clear. Staff have worked
