The Elizabethan Academy are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic and knowledgeable Academic Tutor in our core curriculum areas of Maths and Science with the primary purpose of supporting our disadvantaged students. The successful candidates will undertake specialist small group or one to one work with students requiring additional support.
We require confident people who can relate well to students and are committed to supporting teaching and learning. Previous classroom experience is preferred but not essential. This post could suit a range of applicants from graduates considering moving on to their PGCE, a former teacher considering a return to the profession or a TA / HLTA. This is a rewarding opportunity to not only make a difference to young people’s lives but differentiate yourself from other candidates in the future in what will be a very competitive employment market.
There are many opportunities available in relation to this post. You may have some of your own classes if this is of interest. You could also lead an activity on our extra-curricular or enrichment programme as well as attending school trips.
The successful candidate will have:
• Excellent literacy and numeracy skills.
• Sound knowledge of Maths or Science (or a combination).
• Motivation and flexibility to work across departments and have a real passion for working with young adults at secondary school age.
• Behaviour Management skills.
• A strong initiative.
• Effective organisation and communication skills.
• Will have good communication skills with the ability to work on your own initiative, but also be able to work flexibly as part of a team.
• The ability to act as a positive role model and set high standards.
We are able to offer staff a supportive environment with continuous professional development and excellent facilities. If you have the vision and drive for excellence and want to join an independent academy where relationships for learning are fundamental to our continued success we would be delighted to hear from you.
The Elizabethan High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.We particularly welcome applications from under represented groups including ethnicity, gender, transgender, age, disability, sexual orientation or religion.
