Job description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Teacher to join ACE Schools, part of Transforming Futures Trust, at our Launceston base in Cornwall. The position is to fulfil the role of a primary teacher, but suitable secondary teacher applications will be considered.   

ACE schools is an alternative provision academy based across Cornwall, Plymouth, and Devon. We support up to 500 pupils each year ranging from Year 1 to Year 11. Pupils that we work with often have complex needs and as a result of this don’t currently attend mainstream or special schools’ settings. Our aspiration for all pupils is that we can support them to return to a specialist or mainstream settings and our focus is providing our young people with the skills necessary to make this transition successful.   

As a teacher you will oversee and shape the lives and education of primary and secondary aged children who receive a personalised curriculum.   

You will be responsible for ensuring each young person’s educational needs are met and that they are provided with as many enriching curriculum and extra-curricular experiences as those young people who are in traditional education settings.    

There is a strong team of subject specialists at ACE who visit regularly to support teachers at other bases and you will be part of several teams who work collaboratively to ensure our curriculum meets the needs of our pupils and all teaching staff and mentors have what they need to deliver high quality teaching and learning.   

Our core curriculum focuses on Maths, English, Science and PSHE and we particularly welcome applications from staff who specialise in these areas. Other areas of the curriculum are often delivered thematically and through practical learning out in the local community.    

We are keen to meet experienced candidates from special and mainstream settings who want to take on the challenge of supporting young people whose needs can only be met by the exceptional staff at ACE.    

You will be at the forefront of making life changing differences to a group of young people who deserve the same high level of education as their peers.    

This is a unique and rare opportunity to join an incredible team of staff and young people and if you believe that you have the vision, skills and experience that will shape the lives of the young people we serve we would love to hear from you.
