The posting

If you are ready to add further value to our fantastic Computer Science Department and to work alongside a brilliant school leadership team, then you will find this job extremely rewarding.

Computer Science is a key strategic subject at Ark Victoria Academy. We are seeking an ambitious curriculum leader who is passionate about technology, innovation and widening participation in computing.

As Director of Computer Science, you will develop, lead and manage the effective delivery of an outstanding curriculum, which enables the highest level of student progress and attainment in Computer Science. You will promote outstanding teaching and learning and a strong school culture within a nurturing and rigorous environment.

You will be a fantastic motivator and will inspire students to achieve and exceed grades. You will be aligned to Ark’s high aspirations and expectations for pupils and staff and have demonstrable evidence of improving outcomes.

Our values mean a great deal to us and underpin all that we do, and so it is important that you champion Ark Victoria’s pledge of being Ambitious, Resilient and Kind as well as living by the Ark ethos and six pillars that enable us to achieve our mission.

This is an exciting opportunity to shape the future of Computer Science across the academy, increase student uptake at GCSE, develop enrichment opportunities, and work alongside an experienced senior leadership team that is committed to investing in the subject. In addition, you will be part of our Network programmes on digital innovation, working with BCS and the Ark network to develop materials to support educators with AI usage in schools.

Whether you are an existing Head of Department or an exceptional practitioner ready for your first leadership role, we will provide the coaching, support and professional development needed to help you succeed.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
