Teacher of Spanish and French

Dear Applicant

Thank you for showing an interest in becoming part of our team at The Rugeley Academies.  Fair Oak Academy, Hagley Park Academy and the Rugeley Sixth Form Academy opened in September 2011 under the sponsorship of The Creative Education Academies Trust.    We have made significant progress in raising standards and expectations across the town and you will play a significant role in ensuring that all three academies become outstanding with a strong reputation for high academic standards.

Shape and Design Your World

Our vision is based on the principle that our students can design and shape their future so they can flourish as independent adults in whatever world they choose.

We are working very hard to become outstanding academies and below is our vivid description of what we are working towards:

• At the Rugeley Academies, progress is demonstrated by students who are eager to make significant gains in their learning and play a dynamic role in their learning.  They contribute their own ideas enthusiastically, showing high levels of independence, curiosity and imagination in order to make decisions about their future
• Teaching and Learning will engender infectious enthusiasm amongst the students and behaviour and safety are a priority.  Students will show consistently thoughtful behaviour, creating a positive ethos by being highly considerate and very supportive of each other.   The Academies will provide an exceptionally safe and secure environment and a curriculum that allows every student to find something at which they can excel.
• All staff will be leaders, whether within their own classroom or within the leadership structure of the Academies. 
• We are looking for ambitious staff who lead by example helping colleagues to develop their leadership skills and encouraging students to become leaders themselves. 
• The pursuit of excellence is demonstrated by an uncompromisingly high drive to succeed and the focus of all staff on the relentless desire to improve Teaching and Learning.
  If you think you have the qualities to help us achieve our vision, we look forward to your application.  We are always proud to show people around our Academies please contact Hays Education if you would like to arrange this.
