In most schools the curriculum model is disjointed and disconnected from both the wider school values and from the assessment model the school has. Not so at Acton. At Ark Acton Academy the curriculum is seen as being central to school life; it is the DNA of the organisation that displays what the school stands for and what it believes its core purpose is. The Curriculum Lead will be responsible for designing and embedding a curriculum approach that reinforces our core ethos and approach to teaching and learning and is symbiotic with the Acton approach to both formative and summative assessment. Due to the central importance of the curriculum to the academy the curriculum lead is designed to add significant capacity to the Head of Department to enable the Department to function effectively and consist of highly effective teachers implementing a sequenced and coherent curriculum. The curriculum lead will also take a lead in working across the academy with other HoDs to ensure they are effectively implementing a disciplinary curriculum model. If you obsess about curriculum thinking and despair at many current approaches that distort ‘knowledge-rich’ into rote learning, then this is the job for you. The successful applicant will also have access to the excellent curriculum training programmes from Ambition Institute. For more information and a full job description please click here .
