Located in the attractive village of Newbold in Chesterfield, a short drive from the beauty of the Peak District in Derbyshire and the thriving city of Sheffield, Outwood Academy Newbold is a school with a clear and persuasive ethos. We believe that children never achieve their full potential if their time at school is wasted, and consequently we expect our staff to bring out the best in each and every student.

Our diverse curriculum has something for everyone, with extra guidance for those requiring additional support, and we do whatever it takes to help young people develop a sense of responsibility – towards themselves, each other, their community and the wider world. We are extremely proud of the transformation our academy has started and our welcoming and supportive culture and climate will engage you immediately.

If you share our worldview and want to make a real difference to the lives of young people in Chesterfield, you can join us in transforming futures.

Required to start in September 2026, we have an exciting opportunity and are looking to recruit two Teaching Assistants. The successful candidates will work across the curriculum to support students with varying needs in mainstream lessons, as well as work with individual or small groups of students. You will need to work flexibly as part of our Inclusion Team and have experience of working within a school environment.

You should have the ability to deal with vulnerable students.

Outwood Academy Newbold places students at the centre of everything it does, with a focus on creating a culture of success, a positive climate for learning, and increased student attainment.
