You will be employed by the Gosforth Group and may need to work across all locations within the Multi Academy Trust as required.
Jesmond Park Academy is a large, thriving and fully subscribed comprehensive school, which is rapidly making progress towards our vision of being outstanding. As a member of the Gosforth Group we are working in partnership to lay the foundations for what promises to be an exciting and rapid period of change and development in the school’s history. Our academy offers a positive working experience, with an enthusiastic staff firmly focused on us becoming a leading academy in the city. If you want to be part of realising our vision, play your part in helping us to build on our already significant progress and development, and have a genuine desire to do the best for our students, then come and join us on our journey to being outstanding.
We are seeking to appoint from September 2022, a well-qualified, enthusiastic, and innovative Teacher of Psychology and Sociology, to join a small team of experienced and dedicated subject specialists. Psychology is a popular option choice at GCSE and many students go on to study Psychology and/or Sociology at A Level and beyond. Teachers in the Social Science Department work collaboratively, sharing good practice and developing resources in a supportive working environment. There may also be a requirement to deliver some Key Stage 3 History and Geography as part of this role, so an interest in these areas would also be beneficial.
A willingness to teach across the full age and ability range is essential. The post is suitable for ECT’s.
The school is strongly committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. The successful applicant will be required to undertake an enhanced DBS disclosure and a range of other recruitment checks.
