We are a new secondary school in Acton which opened in 2021. We will have 900 students in Years 7- 11 from September 2025. Pupils will be sitting their GCSE exams for the first time and preparing for progression to A-Level.
Ark Soane seeks to redefine what is possible in education. Our model is “simplicity delivered expertly”: by delivering an immaculately planned and highly academic curriculum exceptionally well; and by providing our pupils with a compelling aspiration-raising ethos we seek to transform the future of pupils in a highly deprived community.
Behaviour at Soane is exemplary enabling you to deliver exceptional lessons. Pupils are entirely bought-in to the values and ethos of the school and know that they are fortunate to attend a school where the quality of education is exceptional and where love, warmth, respect and the highest standards permeate every interaction. Pupils are a pleasure to teach and you can always expect a “thank you miss” when Pupils leave your classroom.
Diversity and inclusion:
We aim to build a diverse and inclusive organisation where everyone – staff and pupils – can do their best work and achieve their full potential. We want to reflect and represent diverse perspectives across our organisation because we know that doing so will make us stronger and more effective.

Safeguarding statement:
Ark is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people in its academies. In order to meet this responsibility, its academies follow a rigorous selection process to discourage and screen out unsuitable applicants.
Ark requires all employees to undertake an enhanced DBS check. You are required, before appointment, to disclose any unspent conviction, cautions, reprimands or warnings under the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975. Non-disclosure may lead to termination of employment. However, disclosure of a criminal background will not necessarily debar you from employment - this will depend upon the nature of the offence(s) and when they occurred.

Please note we will be reviewing applications on an on-going basis and this role may close earlier than advertised depending on the level of response. We strongly encourage to submit your application at your earliest convenience.
