Summary

What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking to appoint a Teacher of Business Studies and Computing who is looking for a new challenge and is willing to join an innovative and forward-thinking department. The ideal candidate must have a real passion for their subject and be equipped with the skills to maximise outcomes for students at both Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4.

Join the ambitious and supportive team at Edgar Wood Academy as a Teacher of Business Studies.

We are looking for an outstanding, dynamic teacher who is committed to delivering engaging, high-quality lessons that bring business concepts to life.

As a Teacher of Business Studies, you will play a vital role in helping every student realise their potential — academically, personally, and socially. You will foster a love of learning, develop students’ enterprise skills, and equip them with the knowledge and resilience needed to thrive in an ever-changing global economy.

At Edgar Wood Academy, teaching is more than delivering lessons. It’s about building strong relationships, having high expectations, inspiring ambition, and modelling the values of Resilience, Empathy, Responsibility, and Respect every day. You will work collaboratively with a passionate team, benefit from a culture of professional growth, and be supported to continuously develop your practice.

What the school offers its staff

Edgar Wood Academy is an 11-16 year old state-funded secondary school. Working closely with Rochdale Borough Council to meet the estimated shortfall of secondary school places, we opened our doors to welcome year 7 children from the areas of Middleton and Heywood in September 2021.

From September 2022, students at Edgar Wood Academy were the first to experience our new school building on Heywood Old Road, Heywood, with its modern state-of-the-art facilities, designed to allow them to flourish academically, culturally and artistically.

Commitment to safeguarding

The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff to share this commitment. This position is subject to an Enhanced DBS check under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974.
