Job description
Religious Studies & History Teacher
AKS Lytham Independent School
Job reference: REQ000785
Contractual hours: 37.5
Basis: Full Time
Closing date: 14 March 2024
We are looking to appoint from September 2024 and experienced teacher of Religious Studies and English.
We believe that a great education is one that empowers people to embrace the challenges and opportunities ahead with capability and confidence; one that enables people to make a difference in an uncertain but exciting future.
We live this every day, with excellent teaching, a wide co-curricular offering and exceptional pastoral support. As an accredited Round Square school, we are able to tap into an international network of educators, helping us to deliver a world-class approach to character education, leadership and enabling our students to develop a global mindset.
We are proud not just of the superb examination results our students achieve, but of the many ways they contribute, whether it is performing on stage, on the sports pitch, in service of others, or elsewhere - there is no typical AKS student.
We are fortunate to be set in a stunning beach-front location on the Fylde coast, in wonderful buildings with fantastic facilities. The magic, though, is in the close community of the school: amongst its students, teachers, parents and support staff, there is a real and tangible warmth, where people are known and supported, challenged and cared for every day.
United Learning is a large, and growing, group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England.
United Learning schools work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. The subject specialists, Group-wide intranet, own curriculum, and online learning portal all help us share knowledge and resource, helping to simplify work processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance.
As a Group, we can reward our staff better: with good career opportunities, better pay, benefits, and ultimately, the satisfaction of helping children to succeed. We invest in our staff wellbeing. Our academies each have at least eight INSET days per year (with three of those solely dedicated to planning), and an ongoing group-wide wellbeing programme. It's an ethos we call ‘the best in everyone’.
We are working hard to become a more diverse organisation – which is key to our commitment to bringing out the best in everyone. We welcome applications from everyone committed to this ethos and would particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented in the Group as a whole. We always appoint on merit, and we are open to discussing flexible working options.
United Learning is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of all children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All positions are subject to an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring check from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) and shortlisted candidates will be subject to an online check.
Here at United Learning, we are committed to ensuring our employees feel valued and appreciated. Because we are a group, we can reward you better than any school could alone, and this includes your employee benefits. Here is some information about the benefits available to United Learning.
