Closing date: Recruitment is running on a rolling basis until places are full - early applications are advised. Starting: September 2026. "The work you are doing is meaningful and directly impacts the future of the kids in your responsibility, and that's one of the best feelings in the world." Kwaku, Maths trainee. About the role: You will be training to be a Science or Maths Teacher - this is a great opportunity to train to teach outstanding lessons and therefore help pupils achieve excellent academic results in Science/Maths. Join our 15th cohort on our 'Outstanding' (OFSTED, 2022) Teacher Training programme this September! Last year saw over 200 trainees join the programme and we are already looking forward to our next cohort, which you could be part of! About Ark: Ark is a charity that aims to transform children's lives through education. In the UK, the strongest predictor of how a child will do at school continues to be what their parents do for a living - but why should this be the accepted status quo? By working in our network at one of our 39 schools, you will be directly making a positive impact on young people's lives through high-quality teaching and thoughtful consideration of all backgrounds and needs, making educational equity a reality. About Ark Teacher Training: Ark Teacher Training (ATT) is a school-based programme offering the perfect mixture of theory and classroom practice to develop you into the best teacher you can be. Because we believe that every child, regardless of their background, deserves to have access to a great education, we work mainly in communities of lower income with a history of academic underachievement. We are very proud to have received our second 'outstanding' rating from Ofsted in all categories! There are only a few ITTs in the UK that can say the same. Alongside this, our programme is also incredibly supportive and bespoke, as you will see below. The Hazeley Academy The Hazeley Academy opened its doors to a small cohort of students in 2005 and is now a well-established, successful secondary school with a Sixth Form educating over 1,500 students aged 11-18. The Hazeley Academy is a proud founder member of the 5 Dimensions Trust. Membership provides our students with access to the very best teachers, holistic and academic education as well as improved connectivity with parents and the wider community. We are proud of the consistently excellent examination results achieved at The Hazeley Academy and work hard to ensure we grow a vibrant community of exceptional people, through the development of our 5Cs: Character, Confidence, Creativity, Contributing and Community . We measure this success not only by academic results but by what our students go on to achieve after leaving the Academy. We offer a vibrant learning environment which students take pride in. This allows us to recruit the very best teachers, who as a result of our ethos, values and focus on staff well-being are amongst the happiest and most motivated in the country. Our teachers combine high level academic expertise, excellent teaching skills and a real concern for the well-being of each and every student. Our most recent OFSTED in February 2024 highlighted that we have 'successfully created a caring culture based on strong routines, excellent relationships, recognition of success and restorative practice. This is highly evident and means that pupils feel extremely safe.' Staff also 'really value the professional development that they receive. They are confident that the school considers their workload when making decisions about new actions to improve the school further.'

About the role: You will be training to be a Science or Maths Teacher - this is a great opportunity to train to teach outstanding lessons and therefore help pupils achieve excellent academic results in Science/Maths. Join our 15th cohort on our 'Outstanding' (OFSTED, 2022) Teacher Training programme this September! Last year saw over 200 trainees join the programme and we are already looking forward to our next cohort, which you could be part of! About Ark: Ark is a charity that aims to transform children's lives through education. In the UK, the strongest predictor of how a child will do at school continues to be what their parents do for a living - but why should this be the accepted status quo? By working in our network at one of our 39 schools, you will be directly making a positive impact on young people's lives through high-quality teaching and thoughtful consideration of all backgrounds and needs, making educational equity a reality. About Ark Teacher Training: Ark Teacher Training (ATT) is a school-based programme offering the perfect mixture of theory and classroom practice to develop you into the best teacher you can be. Because we believe that every child, regardless of their background, deserves to have access to a great education, we work mainly in communities of lower income with a history of academic underachievement. We are very proud to have received our second 'outstanding' rating from Ofsted in all categories! There are only a few ITTs in the UK that can say the same. Alongside this, our programme is also incredibly supportive and bespoke, as you will see below. The Hazeley Academy The Hazeley Academy opened its doors to a small cohort of students in 2005 and is now a well-established, successful secondary school with a Sixth Form educating over 1,500 students aged 11-18. The Hazeley Academy is a proud founder member of the 5 Dimensions Trust. Membership provides our students with access to the very best teachers, holistic and academic education as well as improved connectivity with parents and the wider community. We are proud of the consistently excellent examination results achieved at The Hazeley Academy and work hard to ensure we grow a vibrant community of exceptional people, through the development of our 5Cs: Character, Confidence, Creativity, Contributing and Community . We measure this success not only by academic results but by what our students go on to achieve after leaving the Academy. We offer a vibrant learning environment which students take pride in. This allows us to recruit the very best teachers, who as a result of our ethos, values and focus on staff well-being are amongst the happiest and most motivated in the country. Our teachers combine high level academic expertise, excellent teaching skills and a real concern for the well-being of each and every student. Our most recent OFSTED in February 2024 highlighted that we have 'successfully created a caring culture based on strong routines, excellent relationships, recognition of success and restorative practice. This is highly evident and means that pupils feel extremely safe.' Staff also 'really value the professional development that they receive. They are confident that the school considers their workload when making decisions about new actions to improve the school further.'
