Are you a dedicated and highly effective educator committed to raising the achievement of all students within your subject area? Join us as a Teacher, where you will be instrumental in delivering high-quality learning, utilising a range of teaching and learning strategies to ensure student success.

This position requires a professional who is aware of strategies for improving learning, understands curriculum developments, and is creative in finding solutions to enhance student performance.

Welcome from the Principal:

I am proud to introduce you to Outwood Academy Valley, a school where excellence, innovation, and opportunity create an outstanding learning environment for both students and staff. We are situated at the heart of the community in Worksop, the "Gateway to the Dukeries."

We are deeply committed to putting students first, raising standards, and transforming lives. We believe learning should be enjoyable and enriching, allowing students to make exceptional progress through our knowledge-rich, personalised curriculum. Our Performing Arts Department is a particular area of excellence.

If you are passionate about education, we warmly invite you to join our dedicated team. We value and invest in our staff, offering high-quality professional development and a collaborative environment. We operate as a supportive school family, celebrating successes and working together with a shared sense of purpose.

About the Department:

Design and Technology at Outwood Academy Valley is a practical, valuable and hugely popular subject. It enables students to actively contribute to the creativity, culture, wealth and well-being of themselves, within our community. It teaches how to take risks and so become more resourceful, innovative, enterprising and capable. Students develop a critical understanding of the impact of design and technology on daily life and the wider world. Additionally, it provides excellent opportunities for students to develop and apply value judgements of an aesthetic, economic, moral, social, and technical nature both in their own designing and when evaluating the work of others.

The Academy wishes to appoint an inspiring and enthusiastic subject specialist who will engage with our ethos which places students first. Being a committed and imaginative teacher you will support the rapid and on-going developments within the faculty as we strive to improve attainment across the academy.

Applications are invited from both experienced and recently appointed teachers who wish to develop their career within a fast moving environment.
