At Ormiston Latimer Academy, we are seeking to appoint an effective  teacher who can take responsibility for the education and welfare of learners in accordance with the current School Teachers’ Pay and Conditions document, having regard to the National Curriculum and OAT policies. The Lead Teacher will have specific responsibility for the learning and progress of pupils referred to our satellite provision for short term intervention placements within the Kensington Chelsea Education Centre. 

Our Managed Intervention Centre is part of OATs Alternative Provision Academies in London. MICs offer a managed intervention programme for students from mainstream secondary schools, with placements of up to five weeks. These placements support students whose behaviour in school continues to cause concern after having exhausted internal interventions. This intervention aims to support learners in addressing negative patterns of behaviour in order to return to their mainstream schools.

Our new colleague will also benefit from being part of Ormiston Academies Trust, which is one of the largest not-for-profit MATs in England, currently made up of 43 primary and secondary academies. The Trust’s vision is for all young people to have access to the highest academic, social and practical skills required to achieve their full potential.  OAT support all staff so that they can enhance and develop their professional skills whatever their role within the trust.

Ormiston Latimer Academy is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share in this commitment. Ormiston Academies Trust embraces diversity and promotes equality of opportunity.  Flexible working opportunities will be considered. 

All successful appointments will be subject to suitability checks in accordance with KCSIE, including identity, Right to Work, qualifications, online searches, prohibition check, two references and enhanced DBS check including Children’s Barred List.
