In response to recently confirmed staffing changes, we are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic, skilled and committed Head of Childcare & Education. 

Offering an exciting opportunity for career development for an instructor / teacher, the role will include full support for those seeking to take their first step into leading a full-time course at level 2 and 3. As such, we welcome applications from both experienced and aspiring subject leads. 

Whilst experience in a secondary school environment would be an advantage, a key requirement includes a working knowledge of Early Years and EYFS. Applications are therefore also encouraged from those with experience from a primary background.

St George’s Academy is a large, successful, 11-18 mixed secondary school of 2,340 students (including 334 in the sixth form) with outstanding facilities in all areas. The Academy serves Sleaford, Ruskington and the surrounding Lincolnshire villages with our main campus in Sleaford and our smaller campus in the village of Ruskington.

If you would like to join a very supportive team in an Academy of enthusiastic, friendly and dedicated staff, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

Further details including the job description for the role, and application forms, are available below. Please note that CVs are not acceptable.
