Esteem Valley Academy is seeking a flexible, committed, enthusiastic and highly skilled teacher to lead the planning, delivery and development of PE and Maths across KS2, KS3 & KS4. EVA is an alternative provision academy which provides education to students who are at risk of permanent exclusion or who have already been permanently excluded from mainstream education. Our provision caters for students in Key Stages 2, 3 and 4, at sites located in Ilkeston, Kirk Hallam and Sawley.

We are seeking to appoint a talented and enthusiastic KS3 teacher with excellent interpersonal skills. The role will involve delivering PE lessons and Maths qualifications to pupils who have gaps in their learning, lack confidence and self-belief and can sometime be resistant to engage. The successful candidate will inspire, motivate, challenge and support students to reach their full potential, have a good understanding of their academic, social and emotional needs, be a team player and have a positive approach to challenge and change.

Applicants should also have good knowledge and experience of working with disaffected pupils in a mainstream school, alternative provision or SEND type setting. An affinity for pupils with behaviour, emotional and social difficulties is an essential quality for this challenging but rewarding opportunity.

Mileage claims are included in this role. There may also be travel to our other academy sites for meetings, Inset and CPD. You are required to have daily access to transport with business use included on your insurance. You may be required to transport pupils in your own car and contribute to the blended learning offer by delivering sessions in pupil’s homes if required.

Benefits include: LGPS Pension Scheme, Westfield Health membership and academy laptop.
