JobStudent Support Worker

We are seeking to appoint a dynamic and dedicated Science Teacher to join the team. We are always eager to appoint teachers who share our vision and ethos. The City of Birmingham School is seeking an ambitious, inspirational and enthusiastic teacher who is able to consistently demonstrate excellent classroom practice and contribute to improving outcomes for pupils. We are looking for a Teacher of Science with experience of mainstream teaching, a strong understanding of pedagogy and knowledge of raising both expectations and attainment in the classroom.

We are actively seeking a science teacher with a high level of teaching and curriculum expertise and see this as the key driver to our recruitment. Successful candidates must have an excellent working knowledge of the national curriculum and be experienced at adapting lessons to meet the wide range of academic and SEND needs of pupils in the classroom.

• Passionate about teaching, learning and pupil progress
• Enthusiastic about science
• Dynamic and resilient
• Forward-thinking and determined to make a difference

As Birmingham LA's Pupil Referral Unit, we educate permanently excluded pupils. Pupils at COBS are diverse – many have SEND and we have a high proportion of Pupil Premium pupils. Located across eight campuses in the city, our teams of teachers and support staff work together to teach pupils with complex social, emotional needs and challenging behaviours. We follow a broadly mainstream curriculum, with the same level of academic rigour that is seen in other schools.

However, despite our high standards, our inclusive practices, additional pastoral care and small class size allows us to meet the needs of each individual in the classroom.

• A forward-thinking school committed to continual improvement and innovation
• A welcoming and friendly environment with a positive ethos
• Bi‑weekly full day of PPA that can be taken from home – supplemented with additional PPA within a school week
• Opportunities to build positive relationships and support children
• A supportive, enthusiastic, dedicated, and highly motivated staff and governors
• Opportunities to be part of delivering an exciting curriculum
