The Dean Academy

The Dean Academy is one of the most improved schools in the South West and we are driven by becoming the local school of choice for all families and staff. Situated close to the border of Gloucestershire and Monmouthshire in an area of outstanding natural beauty, we are looking to appoint staff who are highly effective, resilient, and motivated, and are up for the challenge of building a truly exceptional school.

We are a school which has been on an incredible journey of improvement and were judged as “good in all areas” in September 2021. Our GCSE results this summer, the best in the school’s history, further highlight the impact of our work to raise standards and are set to continue to improve.

We are therefore expanding rapidly. We expect the number of students on roll to grow towards 1,000 by 2024, which includes an increase to eight-form entry in our expected Year 7 cohort in September 2023. This dramatic increase in scale brings amazing opportunities for everyone involved in our community and it is a very exciting time to be thinking about joining our organisation. We look forward to hearing from you if you think you could make a difference and have something to bring to a school “where pupils thrive”.

If you choose to join our team and work with us at The Dean Academy we can offer:

•  An exciting career in a rapidly improving, highly ambitious workplace

• ·       The chance to join an incredibly supportive group of colleagues, leaders, local governors and Trust leaders

• ·       A personalised coaching programme so you can fulfil your potential as a teacher / leader

• ·       The opportunity to work collaboratively within The Athelstan Trust

·       An opportunity to work within our truly comprehensive school and become an integral part of the school and local community.
