Our intention with this role is for it to be shared across our alternative provision: Trinity Academy Carlton Mill, and our main site: Trinity Academy Grammar.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to work with some of the most vulnerable learners in Calderdale. Alternative provision across the borough is at capacity; this has contributed to a significant increase in children being permanently excluded from Calderdale schools. We are determined to address this situation.
In the past eighteen months we are proud to have opened our off-site alternative provision in the centre of Sowerby Bridge. We currently have 15 students on roll, and work with our teaching staff at Trinity Academy Grammar, alongside a series of external agencies and support networks to ensure we meet their academic and pastoral needs.
Trinity Academy Grammar is an ambitious and inclusive 11-16 school that, for the first time in the school’s history, is over-subscribed with over 1,000 students on roll; having grown this number from 650 when we first started since becoming part of the Trinity Multi-Academy Trust.
Since then, Trinity Academy Grammar has had a plethora of successes. In February 2023 Ofsted graded the academy as good with outstanding features in leadership and personal development. This followed being awarded the World Class School mark in 2021. These transformational changes mean that it is an exciting time to join the academy, we are incredibly proud of our successes, and we are looking for the best people to work alongside our already committed team to continue our journey.
Due to our successful transformation, the academy is growing in popularity. We are now seeking a Learning Mentor to join our team to complement the professional work of teachers by providing subject specific support to enhance the development, education and achievement of identified students.
What we need?
* 5 GCSEs at Grade C or above, including Maths and English (or equivalent)
* Experience of teaching (or other relevant learning environments), covering groups or whole classes (students 11-16)
* Basic experience of planning, either for lessons or for extra-curricular activities
* Basic experience of assessing student progress and contributing to assessment processes
What can we offer you?
* An opportunity to help shape the development of Trinity Academy Carlton Mill and transformation of Trinity Academy Grammar
* Full support from a dedicated team of senior leaders and a large pastoral team
* Career progression and cross-trust working
* A range of staff benefits, including a Cycle to Work scheme, Electric Car Scheme, reduced-cost health cover and excellent local government pension scheme
