Opportunity for an exceptional teacher to join an Outstanding school in the heart of Leicester, as part of the Mead Educational Trust.
Castle Mead Academy, a non-selective secondary school, opened its doors in August 2019 and has grown to over 1200 scholars. We aim to provide a standard of education that matches the very best schools in the country, ensuring every scholar leaves with high value academic qualifications and the skills to lead fulfilling lives.
This is a unique opportunity to teach in a school where:
1. there is a premium on subject expertise;
2. there is a cherishing of each subject discipline with no generic “one size fits all” approach;
3. a knowledge-rich curriculum in each subject gives pupils access to the best that has been thought and said;
4. there is a focus on feedback rather than marking;
5. there is a calm, orderly environment with rigorous routines for uninterrupted teaching;
6. there is an emphasis on staff professional growth, with integrated professional learning and coaching;
7. we challenge convention, distribute leadership, and consistently consider staff workload.
This is an opportunity for teachers who:
1. are subject enthusiasts;
2. champion pupils’ academic scholarship as well as the development of their character.
