here . About our school: King Solomon Academy is a genuine all-through school, with our pupils staying with us from nursery to sixth form across two sites, ten minutes-walk apart. Because of this, we have a unique opportunity to have a long term and dramatic impact on our pupils’ lives. Our mission is to provide a rigorous and transformational education, which starts in ensuring our pupils develop the vital building blocks for future success in communication and language as well as in reading, writing and maths in the primary phase. This means that in the secondary phase, we can focus on rapidly progressing towards achieving academic excellence for each and every pupil. In nine out of ten of the last ten years, KSA has achieved a progress 8 score of +1 or higher, meaning the vast majority of our pupils can go on to the sixth form pathways of their choice post-16. We have a thriving Sixth Form - mainly made up of academic A levels, alongside one BTEC course in Business Studies. With a huge focus on destinations throughout the whole school, this focus sharpens in Sixth Form. In Autumn 2024, 86% of last year’s Year 13 are going to selective, highly selective or super selective universities or degree level apprenticeships. Benefits of working for King Solomon Academy: We believe in aiming high, working together, being kind and leading the way. Through weekly individual coaching, year group intellectual preparation time and whole school PD, we invest in your growth and development as a teacher to ensure you can excel in creating the best possible climate for learning for our pupils to thrive in. Through our approach to professional development we can promise a successful candidate a positive and rewarding journey of growth. Through shared weekly and long-term planning, a large number of training days and access to the resources and opportunities in the Ark network, we are able to support our teachers to thrive.
