Telford and Wrekin, United Kingdom The Telford Priory School Full time

At the Telford Priory School we believe that it is a matter of social justice that all students receive an ambitious, diverse, powerful knowledge-rich curriculum, and that they are taught it well and work hard so that they truly learn the curriculum, taking it with them into the world.

We are committed to teacher wellbeing as a genuine outcome of rewarding, intellectually stimulating work with no pointless or performative activities. We have no written reports, twice-yearly whole-school data drops, centralised detentions, whole-class feedback as part of our commitment to a happy, satisfied, energised staff.

At the foundation of everything we do is a belief that children must behave well in school and that systems and culture must support this. Excellent behaviour enables excellent teaching but perhaps even more importantly it allows children to be happy and feel safe in school, and to develop into positive, engaged, global citizens. Staff and students alike are constantly striving to “become the best versions of ourselves”.
- Have a passion for achieving excellent outcomes for young people
- Teach engaging and challenging lessons that are grounded in cognitive science informed pedagogy
- Be able to instil in students a love of learning
- Value enrichment opportunities and be passionate about delivering a high quality extra-curricular programme
- Recognise the value of learning beyond the classroom and help shape global citizens by enhancing the understanding of the world we live in
- Have the willingness to work with colleagues and reflect upon their practice
- Be joining a forward thinking school that places young people at the heart of everything we do
- Have the opportunity to work in our state of the art facilities
- Work in a school that places staff development and professional development at the heart of it’s culture
- Be part of an enrichment programme that is comprehensive and shapes our students to become global citizens

If you believe in a great education as the entitlement of all children, regardless of their background, and you want to use research-informed practice to make it a reality, in a school that is committed to staff well-being and high expectations of our students, then we’d love you to apply.

The post is suitable for ECT’s.

The Telford Priory School is part of the Community Academies Trust which is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people.
