The ideal candidate will be:

- someone who is committed to developing their own teaching practice in a supportive team environment
- a professional who is able to work in partnership with parents and other stakeholders
- an excellent communicator who enjoys working as part of a team
Our successful behaviour policies treat student behaviour not as the responsibility of individual teachers, but of the entire school.

- A salary 2.5% higher than the main scale teacher salaries
- Twice as many training days as standard and network-wide events with Ark colleagues, held by the best minds in education
- Excellent in-school coaching from an experienced mentor
