Job overview
People usually say that they got into teaching to make a difference. But how often do they really get the chance? At Mirus, you will be making a real difference in every single lesson.
The school has been through a tough time. For years, pupils have routinely achieved some of the poorest results in the country. But that time is coming to an end and we need you to play a key role in the school's transformation.
On 1st April Mirus was taken over by the Matrix Academy Trust under the leadership of Dame Maureen Brennan. Behaviour is already improving. This means that teachers can get on with doing what they got into the profession for: teach their subjects, develop young people's love of learning and secure their best possible futures.
Matrix's mission is to turn Mirus from one of the lowest achieving schools in the country to one of the highest. To do this, we need hard-working teachers who want to make a difference to children's life chances. Teachers like you.

Closing date: 1st July 2015.
Mirus Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. All appointments are subject to an enhanced DBS clearance.
