Bexleyheath Academy is a thriving and vibrant learning environment that is now at the heart of its own community.  We are part of Academies Enterprise Trust (AET), a multi-Academy sponsor which aims to provide the opportunity for all young learners to fulfil their real potential. 

The individual student is and always will be at the centre of all we do. Each one is very precious to us and it is essential that all of our students enjoy the best education and experiences possible.  Our mission is to provide a positive, enjoyable and structured approach to learning where success is recognised and rewarded and students are encouraged to develop their skills. We offer a safe, secure environment with an aspirational ethos in which students can develop self-belief, self-discipline, consideration for others and enjoy positive relationships. All students have the opportunity to achieve their best. Our curriculum is broad and challenging and our pastoral care is exemplary.

We relish the opportunity and responsibility for driving student success forwards and we are very proud of the achievement of all of our young people.

We are seeking to appoint a dynamic, resourceful and ambitious Assistant Director of English who will assist the Director of English to ensure good lessons are delivered across all Key Stages within the faculty area at all times.  The successful candidate will lead on student progress and further develop the curriculum and associated schemes of learning across this core subject.  You will also bring your knowledge and skills to enhance and to support the further development of a large, enthusiastic and able team of committed professionals.

Information about the school

Bexleyheath Academy is proud to be a non-selective school in the grammar heartland of Kent. Bexleyheath Academy is quickly approaching capacity with students; in order to accommodate the demands of the local community and grow our skilled staff, we must expand.

Joining a flourishing school at this time is an amazing opportunity!

With immediate train access to Central London and easy access to the Kent countryside, Bexleyheath has the best of both worlds. Despite having a Kent postcode, Bexleyheath is classified as Greater London due to its strategic location between Welling, Sidcup, and Bexley village. You can reach Dartford for the river crossing with a short drive along the A2.

Its thriving hub is The Broadway – a shopping district with added appeal in the shape of a bowling alley, cinema and a growing number of restaurants. A little beyond Bexleyheath and you’re at Bluewater, Ashford for the designer outlet and international rail travel to Europe.
