Chief Executive Officer: Lee Wilson
Principal: Mandy Crane
We are an Ofsted Good rated, 11-18 academy, with a thriving sixth form and a campus undergoing a transformation, based in the friendly, South Yorkshire town of Doncaster.
We are proud to say that our recent OFSTED inspection in 2024 cited that the school is a 'Good' school, identifying how the school is an 'inclusive school' where 'pupils of every background are provided with the opportunities they need to be successful.' We value our staff highly, and have established a truly supportive environment where staff training and well being is at the heart of all we do. We are focused on creating a culture of success, a positive climate for learning, and increased attainment, achievement and social and emotional development.
We are proud to have been awarded Silver Status by the Carnegie Centre of Excellence for Mental Health Award and to have received the IQM Award as a Centre of Excellence, which highlights our commitment to have also recently achieved our Eco Schools award along with our Leading the Way award for meeting all eight Gastsby Benchmarks to support employability for our students.
We believe we are on a journey towards Outstanding. Help to take us to the next level.
We work hard to ensure we reduce workload on staff, allowing more time in the classroom to put our vision of students first, raising standards and transforming lives into practice.
All academies within the Outwood Family have gained the IQM Inclusive Schools Award with 18 having Centre of Excellence status and one holding Flagship status.
If you share our vision, join our family.
Outwood Academy Danum would like to welcome you to our friendly, energetic, and positive science department that challenges all students to put their best foot forward.
A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a teacher of science with physics to join our dynamic team. The ability to teach A level physics would be desirable but not essential and there will be an opportunity to deliver aspects of the T level Engineering course in our new T level suites. Comprising 12 members of staff and a 1 to 1 tutor, we aim to support our young learners to achieve their full potential and become happy young independent learners. Our team contains a variety of science specialists from all disciplines, and staff are always on hand to help out with theory or practical queries in their specialist area. We have a thriving sixth form offering A levels, BTEC and T levels in engineering, in which our science department is involved with delivering.
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic Teacher of science with Physics. You will have good subject knowledge, a passion for science, and want students to love science as much as we do. As a member of the Outwood Family you will share our vision of “Students First”.
