We are seeking an exceptional Year 7 teacher with the energy, passion and creativity to teach English and Maths in Year 7 of our thriving All-Through school. As an All-Through school we have created a bespoke middle school model in Years 5-7. In Year 7 pupils have one teacher for a prolonged period each day covering both the English and Maths curriculum. This supports both academic and pastoral transition and, moving into its sixth year of implementation, we are seeing a hugely positive impact on pupil outcomes and wellbeing.
Whilst the majority of the role will be in Year 7, in a consistent learning space, there will be opportunities most afternoons to also work in the Primary phase. This is a full time position. The successful candidate may be either an upper Key Stage 2 or Secondary specialist, able to teach the Year 7 English and Maths curriculum.
CFS is a vibrant, collaborative and forward thinking school for 4-16 year olds, where the personal development of our pupils is just as important as the academic curriculum. Our values of ‘nurture, challenge and inspire’ influence everything we do as a school, and genuinely permeate all areas of school life. If you are a strong practitioner who shares our values and ideals, we strongly encourage you to find out more about CFS via a visit to the school or through our school website www.chichesterfreeschool.org.uk.
There is something extremely unique and special about working in an All-Through environment; the successful candidate will have the opportunity to work creatively with colleagues from both phases helping to develop a cohesive and truly progressive educational experience for all learners.
CFS follows national pay scales; this role would be equally suitable for an early career teacher or more experienced teacher. The Upper Pay Scale would be considered for the right candidate and on the agreement of a whole school responsibility in addition to the role outlined below.
The Year 7 Middle School Team
The team is made up highly experienced and passionate practitioners, from a mixture of Secondary and Primary backgrounds. They work collaboratively on planning an engaging, cohesive and ambitious curriculum in both subjects, with flexibility about how the two subjects are covered throughout the week. The team is overseen by our Executive Principal as a fundamental part of the success of our All Through curriculum. They also work extensively with the Year 6 team, and Heads of English and Maths in the Secondary phase in order to provide a truly unique and effective transitionary experience for our pupils. Each teacher sees their class every day for a double period, in a dedicated, consistent and engaging learning space.
Further information about this role, including a Person Specification, is included in the job pack and is also available on our website.
Early applications are encouraged, and we reserve the right to interview and appoint prior to the deadline.
