‘Be Ready; Be Responsible: Be Respectful’

Charter academy is a caring, positive and nurturing school.

We are offering an exciting opportunity for a primary school teacher to be a class teacher in KS1.  We are looking for an individual who has excellent phonics knowledge including specialisms in  reading and writing as these are key areas for Charter Academy’s focus.

At Charter Academy, we strive to teach children to read effectively and quickly using the Read Write Inc. Phonics programme (RWI.)

We passionately believe that teaching children to read and write independently, as quickly as possible, is one of the core purposes of a primary school. These fundamental skills not only hold the keys to the rest of the curriculum but also have a huge impact on children’s self-esteem and future life chances.

We are a forward-thinking school and we are passionate about making a difference to the lives of our children. They are at the heart of everything we do and we strive to inspire all learners.

We wish to appoint an enthusiastic teacher who would like to develop their career and continue our ethos and passion around teaching and learning. The role will entail contributing to strengthening the quality of provision in KS1.

You would be joining an enthusiastic team focused on providing great opportunities for learning for all our pupils.

You will join us at an exciting time as we have recently joined Castle Phoenix Trust. The Trust is able to offer additional CPD links to staff and it prides itself on being the kind of place people want to work where everyone recognises the buzz of excitement and togetherness, whatever stage they are at in their career. 

We have a wonderful building and well-equipped classrooms, we are able to offer forest school to all pupils. New this year, there has been a large amount of money invested in new reading books and each class is taking the time to design their own book corners.

We are looking for someone who:-

  • Is a highly motivated, innovative and highly effective teacher
  • Has an expertise in phonics including Read Write Inc.
  • Is passionate about phonics and supporting children in continuing to improve their reading and writing skills
  • Has an inclusive ethos with children at the heart of teaching and learning
  • Has the ability to inspire, and enthuse
  • Sets high expectations for all
  • Is a reflective practitioner who is keen to learn and develop as a leader.
  • Has a strong commitment to working in partnership with parents, Governors and the community
  • Is a team player with a good sense of humour and a positive attitude
  • Has a good understanding of the KS1 curriculum

We can offer:-

  • Hard working colleagues and well-trained support staff who are passionate about what they do
  • Pupils who are excited about learning new things
  • A supportive Trust and local governing body who are committed to helping the school move forwards
  • Weekly PPA (Non-contact time) with your year group.
  • A pledge to grow your talent through quality CPD, including access to leadership development, with the support of our Trust.
  • A wide range of professional development and collaboration opportunities within our network and beyond.
  • A strong commitment to staff wellbeing and recognition, through the Trusts’ people strategy, and a range of benefits which include the provision of the teachers’ pension scheme, cycle to work scheme, discounted gym membership, an employee discount scheme and a commitment to developing the use of new technologies to support learning and streamline workload.

If you would like to know more please telephone the school to arrange an informal discussion with the Headteacher, Mrs. Louise Stewart.

We are excited about our future – we would like to hear from you if you think you could be part of creating that future.

We are happy to have visitors to the setting although we will need to take precautions at this time. Alternatively, please arrange to have a telephone conversation to find out more.
