What skills and experience we're looking for
Due to the successful promotion within the Trust of all previous post holders, the Trust is looking to appoint a Deputy Head Teacher for Standards and Curriculum in three of our academies: Brambles, Dormanstown and Pennyman. This unique opportunity means that as a Deputy Head Teacher you will play a pivotal role in contributing to educational standards, evolving our curriculum and working as part of a new strategic team across the Trust. Tees Valley Education is an inclusive learning community that educates 1,243 pupils, from two-year-olds through to Secondary. Pennyman has a designated unit for children with complex physical and medical needs. Dormanstown has a unit that caters for children with complex communication/interaction and/or ASD. This places additional emphasis on the importance of adaptable and progressive teaching strategies. To address these diverse needs, the Deputy Head will collaborate with the Headteacher and other senior leaders to ensure that the curriculum remains inclusive, dynamic, and engaging for all students, regardless of their abilities or learning needs.
