CE Academy is a multi-sited AP Academy providing Alternative Education for young people who are either permanently excluded from school, at risk of permanent exclusion from school, or pupils with emotionally based school avoidance. We also respond to the educational needs of pupils with EHC Plans who would otherwise be attending specialist provision.
We require experienced, talented and committed teachers to work as individual tutors at different locations around Northamptonshire. They will join the teaching team in this vibrant and exciting school. The post calls for an exceptional ability to get on well with challenging young people, their parents/carers, colleagues and representatives of other agencies, to work flexibly and conscientiously both as a member of a team and independently.
Key Responsibilities

• Supporting pupils and parents/carers in maximising effective learning and inclusion for pupils.
• Maximising the educational opportunities for pupils excluded, or at risk from exclusion from schools.
• The responsibility of an Individual Tutor will include teaching, supporting pupils and promoting the philosophy and development of inclusion.
• To ensure the development and maintenance of high quality professional input.
• To liaise with other agencies and services relevant to service delivery.

Our motto is “Freedom to choose a different future”. This was chosen by our young people and recognises our belief that everyone should have the opportunity to access a high quality education.
The CE Academy provides alternative education for young people who are permanently excluded from school or dual registered. We respond to the educational needs of pupils who would otherwise be attending mainstream/special schools. We have positive expectations of behaviour and academic expectations are high and related to young people’s abilities.
We promote both the right to fail and the importance of giving all young people the freedom to choose a different future. We take a holistic approach to education, promoting an ethos and culture built on fairness, equality and mutual respect. This provides an environment in which young people can be encouraged and supported to make the right choices which lead to positive outcomes.
The staff team at CE Academy are committed to ensuring that all of our young people are at the heart of everything we do. They work tirelessly to enable them to make progress with their social and communication skills as well as achieving academic and vocational success.
We provide all young people with a personalised timetable designed to meet their social, emotional and academic needs. The curriculum on offer provides opportunities to develop cultural capital and for both personal development and academic success. We take great pride in ensuring every young person has a destination when they leave us at the end of Year 11.
As Headteacher I am proud to lead an experienced and dedicated group of staff. We pride ourselves on our relationships with our young people, families and communities. Strong relationships and working together are at the heart of our ethos.
As part of Tove Learning Trust (TLT) the CE Academy benefits from working in partnership with an established network of schools to continue to provide outstanding opportunities for our young people.
