Teaching Assistants - Part time and flexible working considered

We are looking for individuals with a passion for supporting our students and encouraging them to find a desire to learn and be the best that can be. In return, we can offer an environment where you will gain whole school experience and learn much on your journey to senior leadership and headship. Our school is unique, exciting and innovative - our philosophy is inclusive and founded on respect. If you feel this fits with your own value set and you have a track record of leading change, raising standards and you strive for excellence, then this might be just the role for you. We aim to recruit staff who:

• Love the processes of teaching and learning and are keen to continually develop their own skills;
• Recognise that teaching can be a demanding job and react positively to those demands;
• Will subscribe to the ethos of the Academy and be committed to get the very best from our students;
• Take every opportunity, in and out of the classroom, to talk to students, model expected behaviours and build positive relationships;
• Remain at the forefront of pedagogy, educational research and debate.
• See themselves as having the potential to become senior school leaders of the future., My aim is for Bexhill High Academy to be judged to be a 'good' school by the end of 2016 and 'Outstanding' by 2019. The single most important factor in ensuring that as a school we achieve our goal is to recruit and retain outstanding staff. We are therefore able to offer attractive packages to join the school and also a loyalty bonus linked to performance management payable after two years.
  
  Welcome to Bexhill Academy, we are a vibrant and thriving school at the heart of our local community. Situated on the South Coast of England in the beautiful County of East Sussex. The Academy is close to the attractive seaside towns of Eastbourne and Hastings, within easy reach of Brighton and numerous pretty rural villages.
At Bexhill we strive to ensure that we enable each child to become a balanced, happy and articulate person, with the intellectual freedom to be creative; confidence to initiate; flexibility to respond to challenge, change and adversity; compassion to serve others; spirit to enjoy life; integrity to be trustworthy; and motivation to have a lifelong love of learning. All staff who work at this Academy are fully committed to working together to secure rapid improvements in all areas and work tirelessly to this end. This strong sense of moral purpose makes Bexhill Academy a uniquely special place to work and we are committed to providing a working environment that encourages all staff to invest in their own professional development and the professional development of their colleagues. As a result the school can now proudly announce that it has been removed from 'Special Measures'. The lead Ofsted Inspector stated; "It's lovely to see a place that is going places". In addition to this tremendously good news I can also report that the school has been allocated £6million to make the changes to our building design. The funding will enable us to return to traditional individual classrooms moving away from the open plan PODs that are a current feature of the school. We will also be able to create 7 new Science Labs, new Food Technology, Computer Science rooms and a much needed Library. As an Attwood Academy we offer an exciting and rewarding place to work. We are currently looking to recruit staff who also wish to make a real difference, staff who have drive, ambition and energy; and who are ready to join us on our journey to 'Outstanding'.
