Small enough to care, big enough to make a positive impact 

As a 13-18 school in south east Northumberland with good standards of teaching and behaviour and a strong commitment to improvement, we believe passionately that every student should be enabled to succeed in all aspects of school life.  Building on our ‘Good’ rating by Ofsted, we continue to strive for further improvements.

We require an enthusiastic, inspiring and ambitious PE teacher to join our team, with a passion for sport and getting our students active. You will be committed to raising the expectations and achievements of our students at both GCSE and A Level. The successful candidate will have a passion for the subject and enjoy teaching at a high level. 

Our schools have all excelled in a variety of sports at county and national level. A wide range of sports is offered as part of the curriculum and we have fantastic opportunities to expand our sporting opportunities in a new school building, which comprises a new swimming pool.

Student behaviour and attitudes to learning are good throughout the school and we need a highly motivated individual who can enable students to exceed their expectations and have high aspirations for their futures.

Although this post is primarily to teach at Astley Community High School, you may also be required to teach at Whytrig Middle School which shares the same site or Seaton Sluice Middle School when classes travel between sites to have PE lessons and use the swimming pool. All three schools share an Executive Headteacher.

Visits to the school are also warmly welcomed and encouraged. Please contact Richard Goodman, Head of School on 0191 2371505 or email vacancies@svf.org.uk to make an appointment. 

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. It is essential that all staff and volunteers share this commitment. An enhanced criminal records check from the Disclosure and Barring Service is required for all posts. 

Interested in applying? A completed application form must be submitted by 9am on Wednesday 15 February 2023 by e-mail to vacancies@svf.org.uk 

It is expected that interviews will take place on Tuesday 28 February.
