Further Information
Required from September 2017, we are seeking to appoint a teacher who is passionate about learning; has commitment and expertise; and who will enthuse and motivate both teachers and pupils. Following our success in being appointed a Teaching School, we are keen to build capacity within school and employ a highly motivated “KS3 English teacher”.

This is a full time post which would suit a newly qualified or an experienced teacher and it would be helpful if applicants could state their curriculum strengths and expertise.

We have high aspirations not only for our students but also our staff as we invest in professional development opportunities to enable staff to flourish, and contribute to the vision and development of PCMS.

You will be an outstanding practitioner, committed to continual improvement, promoting an ethos of enjoyment, challenge, attainment and achievement.
We are reviewing our setting provision and want to extend this to create smaller class sizes and more personalised learning in Years 7 and 8 in Maths and English.

Knowledge of, and experience in, ICT is expected as we have Interactive White Boards in all classrooms and use SIMS rigorously.

The successful applicant will be an outstanding KS3 English teacher and will be expected to make contributions to our Teaching School commitment and bespoke School to School support.

Please note that we are currently in the process of converting to Academy status. This is anticipated to take effect from 1 July 2017, and as such, you will then be employed by the Academy Trust. Until this takes place you will be employed by the Governing Body.

An application pack, including an application form, is available to download below. Completed application forms should be returned directly to the school by post and/or by e-mail, no later than midday on Thursday 12 January 2017. Teaching observations will take place on Wednesday 18 January 2017 (times to be confirmed).

Further information about the school can be found on our website.

Visits to our school are encouraged. Please telephone to make an appointment with the Headteacher, Dr Caroline Pryer.

Interviews will take place on Friday 20 January 2017 (times to be confirmed).

Ponteland Middle School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. An enhanced criminal records check is required for this post. Reference checks will be requested for all short listed candidates.
