What skills and experience we're looking for
Following the growth of our Welling Football academy, last summer’s excellent academic outcomes and our recent successful GOOD Ofsted inspection, we are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and energetic Head of PE to lead our PE department in its next phase. This Head of PE role is perfect for an ambitious leader who is passionate about all things sport and PE. This role will suit a candidate who is enthusiastic, ambitious and driven. You will be an outstanding teacher who can use their knowledge and skills to instil a lifelong love of sport and fitness whilst striving for sporting excellence. You will ultimately be responsible for securing the best possible outcomes for our students both on and off the field.
Physical Education forms an integral part of day to day life at Cleeve Park school and we currently offer accredited courses at both key stage 4 and 5. Our thriving football academy has seen year on year success and has supported the growth of uptake for qualifications. We have outstanding facilities including a recently renovated fitness suite, high quality 3G full size football pitch, three dedicated PE classrooms and two sports halls. We expect all of our students to be challenged, to be inspired and to believe in their own ability. Cleeve Park is a place where traditional values meet innovation. If you want to join a highly successful team who are passionate about the very best education for our young people, and you can inspire learners to seek what they do not yet know, then we want to hear from you.
