‘Staff enjoy working at the school. The school ensures that staff workload is manageable. It gives high priority to staff well-being.’ - Ofsted, 2024

Callerton Academy is an exciting and thriving new secondary school where staff are highly valued and invested in to be able to become exceptional practitioners. Inspected in January 2024, the school was awarded a ‘Good’ rating by Ofsted citing that our students are well behaved and that our curriculum is highly ambitious and inclusive. We strongly recommend you read our report, which can be found here.

As a school we are committed to providing the very best education for pupils from Year 7 to Year 11. Based in our excellent temporary site, formerly a school building which has been reconfigured in Newcastle’s Graingertown, we have access to a range of brilliant facilities. We will move to our brand-new site which will have capacity for 1200 students in 2025; this is located to the northwest of the city - close to Westerhope, Kingston Park and Newcastle International Airport. We are one of two new schools within Gosforth Group Multi Academy Trust and will be welcoming our fourth cohort of students when the position starts meaning that we will have Years 7, 8, 9 and 10.

About the role

We are seeking a Learning Support Assistant to join our staff team at Callerton Academy.

- A sympathetic understanding of broad needs of secondary aged students
- Attention to detail
- An effective team player
- A colleague who is excited about the prospect of being part of a growing support team, setting up systems and problem solving to ensure the best possible environment and outcomes for all students.
- Additionally, part of the role includes accompanying our students on the school transport service, starting at the Simonside Primary School site, a couple of times a week. Working hours therefore will be 8am to 4pm.

What we can offer you
- An opportunity to work with highly skilled professionals
- Enthusiastic and motivated students who ‘have positive attitudes to their learning and behave well.’ (Ofsted, 2024)
- An exciting and extensive commitment to professional development
- A school with its community at heart
- An exciting programme of staff well-being activities
- Wider career development opportunities to be involved across the Gosforth Group
- Staff parking
