Ark John Keats is an exceptional school looking to hire exceptional people.

We are a genuinely all-through school, from Nursery to 6th Form, providing a dynamic and challenging education for the local community we serve. Ofsted state we are outstanding, our GCSE outcomes show our pupils make brilliant progress and our application numbers make us one of the most over-subscribed schools in London. Our staff are incredibly aligned and motivated by the idea that all pupils are capable of achieving all things. Our approach is underpinned by our six pillars – mastery curriculum, high quality teaching, strong discipline, character development, raising aspirations & enrichment and developing education leaders.

We work to ensure our pupils have the same opportunities for success as those in affluent areas who benefit from expensive private schooling. We know our pupils will need more than just great exam results to be successful and have carefully planned each stage of development to support them to build the character, independence and discipline to make the most of the opportunities their academic qualifications will provide.

Our curriculum is at a very exciting stage of its development. It is being created by subject experts and tailored to the needs of our pupils, aiming to push them to achieve excellence in challenging academic subjects. We now need inspirational teachers and leaders to bring our curriculum alive in the classroom, enabling our pupils to become great readers, writers, mathematicians, scientists, historians and geographers.

Our unique model in KS2 means that our teachers teach the subjects they are most passionate about and work together with KS2 colleagues in secondary style maths or English teams.
