Vacancies at Sandwell Academy

Sandwell Academy is committed to promoting and safeguarding the welfare of children and young people and expects all those working at the Academy to share this commitment.  The Academy’s recruitment and selection processes comply with national and local guidance on best practice.

Please read the following notes before completing the application form.  

Applications from outside the UK

In order to be able to employ you, we will need to see evidence of your right to work in the UK.  All holders of European Union passports are entitled to work freely in the UK.  Citizens from outside the EU may be able to work in the UK if the employer is able to obtain a work permit for them or if they have an appropriate visa or alternative form of permission.  In order to be able to apply for a work permit, the Academy would have to be able to demonstrate that, having advertised for the vacancy at a national level, no suitable EU applicants were available for employment.

Referees

In seeking references, the Academy is most interested in the views of current and recent employers.  For those leaving full time education, a reference from your school or college will be most desirable.  If you are not currently working with children but have done so before, one of your referees should be the last employer with whom you did work with children.  References from relatives or friends will not be accepted.  You should state clearly the ‘capacity’ of any referee – ie their relationship to you.  You should also declare any family or personal relationship you may have to any referee. 

Record of Formal Education & Training

If you are invited to interview and are successful in being appointed to the post, you will be required to provide proof of all qualifications listed on your application form in the form of original certificates.

Next Steps

Once the advertised closing date has passed, applications will be considered by the short listing panel.  Candidates who are short listed will be invited to attend for interview.  Unfortunately, due to the large volume of applications we receive, it is not possible for the Academy to write to applicants who are not short listed.  If you have not been contacted within three weeks of the closing date, you should assume that you have not been successful in your application.

We look forward to receiving your application and to welcoming you to Sandwell Academy.

Thank you for your interest in working with us.
