Opportunity for an exceptional candidate to be a founding teacher at a brand new Ark secondary school in Barnet

 

In September 2019, Ark Pioneer, a non-selective secondary school, opened its doors to our brand new building in Barnet and welcomed in our first year 7. By the time these pupils reach year 13, we’ll have over a thousand pupils. Our school is focussed on delivering a standard of education matching the very best schools in the country. Our vision is that every pupil leaves Ark Pioneer with real options, be it embarking on the university course of their choice or starting out in their chosen career.

We are recruiting a team of exceptional staff to achieve our vision and work together to create a genuinely outstanding school. The science teacher will work closely with the founding team to shape excellent provision in science as we build to a full school.

Teaching experience will not be a determining factor - we welcome applications from newly qualified teachers as well as more experienced candidates. We will develop every staff member that joins our team, providing one-to-one support, coaching and mentoring and access to extensive network training.

 Additional teaching and learning responsibilities would be available for the right candidate.

 The ideal candidate will

·         Have a strong academic background, with good A Levels or equivalent, and a good degree
·         Combine subject matter expertise with a passion for teaching science
·         Share the Ark Pioneer vision and be aligned with the six pillars underpinning it.
·         Value and support practices driving continued progress across the network of Ark schools.

Please submit your application by 9am on 11th February. For further information, a confidential discussion or any technical queries please contact info@arkpioneer.org and our Principal will be in touch with you.
