A unique opportunity to be part of the of the exciting journey at Temple Learning Academy: an all-through school in the heart of its community.

Temple Learning Academy is one of only a few ‘all-through’ (Early Years to Y11) schools in Leeds. Being an all-through school means our students benefit from a seamless transition between year groups and phases; shared expertise and resources, and a curriculum that is sequenced from Early Years to Year 11.

Our colleagues specialise in either Primary or Secondary phase practice and work for the vast majority of their time in their respective phases. Consequently, this post will base you almost always within the Secondary phase. Cross phase work has so many benefits and allows us to maximise the opportunities for our students so we encourage this collaboration as often as possible. With training and support, and strong relationships between colleagues, our through-school collaboration is a source of exciting opportunities for students and staff. No colleague is expected to work cross-phase without the full support of appropriate training and CPD.
