East Lothian Council seeks to appoint a dynamic and forward-thinking individual for the position of Teacher of Physical Education at Rosehill High School on the Wallyford Learning Campus. Our school opened in August 2023. We currently have around 500 pupils in S1-S4, with further fast-paced expansion anticipated in the coming years.
Our new secondary learning facility is designed to support creative approaches to pedagogy, with a range of adaptive teaching spaces. Alongside up to date and digitally enabled classrooms, there is a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Mathematics) plaza, a Learning Resource Centre, extensive facilities to support the arts, and a state of the art sport and leisure complex. Our sports facilities include a suite of pitches, a gym, a dance studio and two large multipurpose sports halls. Learning and teaching on the campus go beyond the traditional classroom and encompass outdoor learning and learning for sustainability. The campus also includes a number of community and health spaces to support collaboration between a range of professionals and sectors.
The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate that they can:
* Deliver consistently high quality learning, teaching and assessment through inclusive pedagogical approaches
* Work collaboratively with colleagues to drive forward school improvement with an evidence-based mindset and an awareness of educational theory and research
* Contribute to an exciting and challenging curriculum which demonstrates coherence and progression, and meets the needs of all learners
* Exhibit the interpersonal skills required to play a full part in safeguarding and nurturing young people, offering the right balance of challenge and support
* Demonstrate a commitment to ongoing professional learning with a focus on improving outcomes for young people
The successful candidate will be at the forefront of a growing school community and have the opportunity to make a meaningful difference to young people’s lives. This is a unique opportunity to contribute to the development of a brand new place of learning, in which everyone can thrive.
We particularly welcome applications from those who are dual qualified and/or who can actively contribute to the school curriculum beyond their subject specialism. This role is within the faculty of Health and Wellbeing, which delivers an Outdoor Learning programme and Food Tech/HE courses as well as PE.
Although the current days for this post are Monday-Thursday for session 25-26, these days may be subject to change in future years, in line with the business need of the school. Candidates will also be eligible to join the East Lothian supply list if they would like the opportunity to undertake full-time hours.
