East Riding of Yorkshire Council Hiring for Progress Leader for Physical Education Job at Withernsea, England Full Time

The job itself

How can we use sport and physical activity to inspire confidence in our young people so that they can thrive in a changing world? The development of physical education and sport is an integral part of the school’s Curriculum of the Head, Hand and Heart. As we seek to broaden the horizons of students through an excellent and relevant education, striving to prepare them for exciting and varied futures as respectful and responsible people, it is critical that we harness the transformative power of physical education.

To help us realise our ambitions, Withernsea High School seeks an outstanding Teacher of PE who is not just passionate about your subject and committed to the profession, but who is ambitious for young people and the community we serve.

Following a recent Ofsted inspection, graded good in all categories, we are focussed on authentic and sustainable school development which brings about opportunities and meaningful improvements to the lives of students.

Withernsea High School is a smaller than average local authority maintained secondary school. Situated in Holderness and with a coastal location, it has all the advantages of a pleasant rural environment. Housing is affordable in the town of Withernsea and in the surrounding villages house prices are relatively low.

The school benefitted from a rebuild and refurbishment in 2016 and as such is spacious, modern and fully resourced.

You will join a team who are thoroughly committed to working hard for young people. Like you, they are determined to drive forward change by doing the right things and doing them well.

Please complete the application form together with a covering letter of no more than two sides of A4. The letter should outline how your experience, ability, knowledge and skills through the role of Progress Leader for PE will help the school to achieve its aims for students. For an informal discussion with the Headteacher Mark Crofts, please contact Mrs K Burton, Headteacher’s PA.

Digital copies of the application form in both Word and PDF formats are available on our website.
