“We do things differently here.”

At Axis Academy, everything we do is rooted in relationships, understanding need, and refusing to give up on young people for whom education has not yet worked. Guided by the YES Trust values, we are child‑centred, relational, and adaptive to need.

Our Horizon Pathway is our KS3 alternative curriculum offer, designed for learners who are working significantly below age‑related expectations, often as a result of disrupted education, unmet need and complex social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) profiles. Horizon is about rebuilding trust, re‑engaging learners and creating meaningful progress—academically, socially and emotionally—by doing things differently.

We are seeking a creative, resilient and values‑driven teacher who can deliver Maths, English and Science in flexible, innovative ways while building strong, authentic relationships with our pupils.

Purpose of the Role

The KS3 Horizon Pathway Teacher will be responsible for the delivery of a bespoke, alternative KS3 curriculum, with a strong focus on core subject learning, early literacy and numeracy intervention, and re‑engagement. The role requires an adaptive approach to curriculum design and delivery, underpinned by PACE, trauma‑informed practice and a deep understanding of SEMH.

In addition to leading Horizon teaching groups, the postholder will contribute to small‑group literacy and numeracy interventions and support the delivery of the KS3 science curriculum across the wider cohort.

I hope you will want to join our team to help develop our school and create an aspirational environment for our pupils. Please get in touch via email admin@theaxisacademy.org if you have any questions and I look forward to hearing from you.
