Teacher of English KS3 with TLR

About our School At Orion Coopers we have high expectations of all members of the community; we push each other to be the best versions of ourselves. This is best demonstrated in our ambitious curriculum for all pupils which matches and exceeds what is expected nationally. We have a strong team of creative and enthusiastic teachers who support and stretch pupils in their learning. We have a shared understanding of what great teaching looks like and support this through bespoke training and coaching. As a teacher at Orion Coopers, you will receive exceptional professional development to enable you to develop your skills set and progress. We are committed to developing opportunities for our staff to grow in their roles and into roles within the school and across the Trust. We have clear behavioural expectations that ensures our school is calm and orderly and learning comes first. Clear systems mean that pupils are rewarded and encouraged whilst behaviour that does not meet expectations is consistently challenged. Working alongside our classroom teachers, we have a dedicated pastoral team that support within each year group and across the school. Our recent Ofsted in 2023 commented that “Pupils are safe around the large school site. They know that bullying is not tolerated, and that staff swiftly intervene to resolve any issues. Staff build positive working relationships with pupils and listen to any worries that they may have. Pupils are kind and respectful to others, including to new arrivals to the school. Sixth-form students act as role models for their younger peers.” Our pastoral and associate staff teams are key in delivering our educational goals. As a community we are committed to the professional development of all staff. Therefore, we offer a comprehensive Associate Staff programme of training and development which allows members to enhance their experience and skills through a broad range of opportunities. Joining Orion Coopers now means that you will be part of our exciting journey on this next stage of our development. We look forward to welcoming you into our community.
