This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate educator to inspire students and bring History to life through engaging and creative teaching. The successful candidate will have a strong subject knowledge and a commitment to delivering high-quality lessons that support and challenge all learners. You will join a supportive and collaborative team within the Humanities department.

We are rated “Good” by Ofsted and remain committed to building on this success as a team. This achievement reflects the dedication and hard work of our staff, students, and wider school community. We are incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made and are excited to continue providing a high-quality, supportive learning environment where all our pupils can thrive.

The sole ethos for the school community is ‘Empowering Learners for Life’. Whilst we are committed to ensuring that every student makes excellent progress, this concept stretches well beyond academic performance. We firmly believe that every aspect of school should equip learners to be successful in all areas of their lives, both now and for their future. Indeed, every single decision or action taken improves the life chances of all our learners. This is underpinned by ensuring the Academy is a safe, nurturing and happy environment: put simply, The Orme Academy is a great place to learn and a great place to work.

This ethos applies equally to the staff. We believe in empowering our staff to be aspirational and effective leaders of learning and provide a good programme of CPD and induction to support those joining our vibrant community. This CPD includes being part of a large MAT, with its own Institute of Education (IoE) focused on the development of staff. The IoE provides access to wide range of network hubs, subject experts and access to best practice, as well as bespoke CPD opportunities. This is an exciting opportunity to join a highly professional and committed team of staff whilst also playing their part in the success and future development of our Academy.
