We are fortunate to have such a caring, skilled and dedicated set of teachers, associate staff and governors here at Malet Lambert; ultimate professionals who are dedicated to the pupils and effective running of our school. We are proud of our school and would welcome the opportunity to give you a tour, so please don't hesitate to contact Mollie Poskitt, HR Officer on or by email via if you would like to visit or find out more.
Within The Education Alliance Multi Academy Trust, there are lots of opportunities for collaboration and also further opportunities to develop and progress. As a trust, we are here to make great schools and happier, stronger communities so that people have better lives.
For too long in many schools, staff have been asked to choose between being seen as good at their job and being a good mum, dad, partner, son, daughter or friend. We are doing everything we can to support our staff to balance the demands of their jobs and those at home.
To support this, we:
* Trust our staff to plan, prepare and assess at the best time for them, allowing them to go off-site in their PPA
* Have centralised our Behaviour Policy so teachers are freed up from supervising detentions
* Demand ethical leadership built on professional trust
* Reject fads and ensure our CPD is evidence-informed and predominantly subject specific
* Have reduced data collections to twice yearly
* Do not expect staff to respond to emails outside normal working hours
* Do not deploy staff at other Trust schools unless it is at their request
We have removed the following:
* Performance management objectives and performance-related pay
* Lesson observations and high stakes, toxic accountability
* Onerous marking policies
* Requirements for daily or weekly lesson plans
Above all, we recognise that seeking to remove the number of tasks staff undertake will have little effect on improving work/home balance if this happens within a toxic culture. To support this, we offer training for our leaders to ensure they are able to translate our values into behaviours which are built on the principles of dignity, respect, professionalism and integrity.
We offer a range of benefits, including:
* Ethical leadership, professional trust and autonomy and a caring ethos in which everyone is valued and respected.
* A great programme of CPD and opportunities to collaborate with other teaching professionals across TEAL.
* Family friendly policies, including sector leading Maternity, Adoption and Neonatal care pay offers.
* Opportunities for flexible working
* Well-being support including discounted East Riding gym membership; free annual flu vaccinations; refund of the cost of the annual NHS prescription prepayment certificate; access to a free employee assistance scheme 24/7 with advice on a wide range of practical issues ranging from legal information and consumer issues to specialist counselling or our virtual GP service.
* Access to our staff benefits platform which includes big brand discounts and other financial incentives including a cycle to work scheme offering discounted bike purchases
* Membership of the Teachers' Pension Scheme.
What are we looking for?
We are looking for an individual who is passionate about Teaching and Learning and wants to make a positive impact on the lives of young people. You must hold Qualified Teacher Status and have knowledge and understanding of the principles and practices of effective teaching and learning, monitoring/ assessment and evaluation.

About Malet Lambert

Thank you for your interest in our school.
Malet Lambert has a long and proud history, dating back to 1932. Once a grammar school, it became a community comprehensive school in 1968 and it continues to be true to the word 'comprehensive' many years later.
Having taught in many schools and as a member of the senior leadership team at previous schools too, I am immensely proud to be at the forefront of the everyday running of this ambitious school. I joined Malet Lambert in 2014 as a Deputy Headteacher, before becoming Headteacher in 2016 and, therefore, I now know our pupils, staff and community well.
From our thorough transition process in Year 6 through to the close mentoring and support for our pupils taking public examinations in Year 11, we put the needs of individual pupils at the heart of everything we do. At Malet Lambert, we pride ourselves upon having high aspirations. These will ensure that all of our pupils meet their potential by creating a safe, yet vibrant learning environment, which sees first class teaching and learning every single day.
We are very fortunate to have such a caring, skilled and dedicated set of teachers, support staff and governors here at Malet Lambert; ultimate professionals who are dedicated to the pupils.
Having become part of The Education Alliance (TEAL) in 2016, this has only reinforced the support for our pupils further, by allowing us to work in partnership with other successful schools. 2023 saw us reaffirm a 'Good' Ofsted grading, as well as maintaining our Inclusion Quality Mark Flagship School status.
Malet Lambert year 11 cohorts have achieved some excellent examination results over the years. We are, of course, proud of this, but for me, it is of greater importance to ensure that our pupils have access to a broad and balanced curriculum recognising each learner's personal, social and cognitive ways of learning, whilst encouraging respect for everyone. Our pastoral systems have been developed over the last few years and as a result are very strong.
Thank you for looking us up. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or would like to come and visit us.
Wishing you all the best,
Patrick Sprakes
Headteacher
