Thank you for considering St. Mary's Catholic Academy for the next stage in your career.

St Mary’s is a highly regarded oversubscribed Catholic Academy in Blackpool in the Diocese of Lancaster. The school is very much a Catholic family where everyone works together to support and challenge one another to be the best they can be.

We are seeking to appoint a talented female Teacher of PE to teach a timetable of girls PE. This is a full time role with effect from 1st September 2026. The successful candidate will be able to teach PE at Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, with the potential for teaching some Key Stage 5 in time.

The role will suit a recently qualified teacher or an experienced teacher of PE, and the salary will be adjusted accordingly depending on experience.

 It is not essential, but we would be interested in candidates with the ability to offer a dance element.

For the correct candidate there is the opportunity to be considered for the role of Head of Year to fill a recent vacancy which has arisen within St Mary’s. This would attract a TLR 2c in addition to the teacher salary. Candidates wishing to be considered for this role will need to address this in their letter of application.

Please refer to the application pack for the person specification, job description and further details.
