Teacher of Mathematics – Kensington Aldridge Academy (KAA) – Kensington, West London

About KAA

Kensington Aldridge Academy (KAA) is a vibrant new 11 – 18 school in Ladbroke Grove, West London. We opened to 180 Year 7 students in September 2014 and our Sixth Form opens in 2016. In a recent inspection the DfE described us as, “one of the best new academies we have ever seen.” Miriam Rosen, former Ofsted Chief Inspector, said, “KAA has got off to a remarkable start and is already securing highly positive outcomes for students.”

At KAA we offer a quality and standard that are unique in the state sector. We are partnered with the Godolphin & Latymer and Charterhouse independent schools and LAMDA and the Royal Academy of Dance. Situated in stunning new buildings, we have facilities to rival any school.

Teachers at KAA have a rare opportunity to create a new school with the highest possible standards. We ask a lot from our teachers, expecting them to deliver excellent lessons, day in day out. We also provide extensive support and professional development opportunities. In a start-up school, with a central focus on teaching and learning, you will have the space to extend your classroom skills which would be hard to find elsewhere.

The successful candidate will have:

Evidence of being, or having the clear potential to be, an outstanding teacher of their subject.
Significantly contributed to the work of a successful department.
Experience of leading the planning and implementation of a curriculum initiative.
Experience (can be limited) of delivering staff training and undertaking professional development of other teachers.
Contributed to intervention programmes at a department/year group/whole school level.
Good knowledge of data, tracking and monitoring of discrete groups of students.

Deadline for receipt of applications by email is 09.00 on Friday 27th March 2015, however, prospective candidates are encouraged to submit their applications as soon as possible as the school reserves the right to close the advert should we feel able to appoint an appropriate candidate.
