ECT Teacher of Primary

The Role

We have an exciting opportunity for an KS2 teacher - ECT to join an academy that is really going places. There’s a real bus about our academy and the rate at which our pupils progress, but don’t just take our word for it, come and see us for yourself.

By helping our teachers to develop into leaders within the profession, we know that we are also helping our pupils to develop into leaders of the future.

A happy, ambitious primary academy in Northfield, Birmingham. Our vision is to inspire all of our children with a love of learning and thirst for knowledge from Nursery through to Year 6.

We are an E-ACT academy and proud to be part of a community that includes over 15,400 pupils and 2,300 teaching and non-teaching professionals across the country.

E-ACT is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and vulnerable adults, and all appointments are subject to enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service (DBS) checks and satisfactory references.

For a full description of the role, see the job description and job specification. We encourage you to get in touch with any questions.

We know just how important it is to think big and to help break those glass ceilings faced by young people today. Together we can encourage our pupils to step out from their comfort zones, build self-esteem and broaden their horizons.

Quite aside from the opportunity to work with pupils whose energy, creativity and enthusiasm never fail to inspire, our academy is:

• Ofsted good

• Committed to teacher development through E-ACT’s professional learning programme in partnership with leading training providers such as Ambition School Leadership

• Leading the way in youth mental health through our very own Mental Health First Aid programme – we aim to train every teacher as a mental health first aider.

• A leader in the education sector for outstanding employee benefits including a generous maternity policy and opportunities for flexible working.

E-ACT’s educational network is considerable – with such scope comes the requirement for robust structure and process.
