Headteachers’ Welcome

A very warm welcome to Fortis Academies careers page, I’m the incredibly proud Headteacher of Fortis Academy and passionately believe that anyone who works in a school plays a vital role in the development of the next generation of youngsters who will take our world and make it their own.

At Fortis we are always looking for people who not only fit the current job description but are willing and able to learn new skills, we believe that everyone has the right to be the best version of themselves and our many people who have joined the team through different routes and ended up teaching will testify to this.

We are one of the largest academies in Birmingham at 1500 student of 11 – 18 years of age. We have also just secured an OFSTED good for the academy, this we are incredibly proud of but we know our journey doesn’t end there. We are looking forward to a new building which should be finished and available to students by 2026, we are starting to look at plans now, so this is a really exciting time to be joining us.

The trust you will be joining is an incredibly supportive one, that recognises that potential is as important as experience and are more than happy to support.

 I hope you find everything you need here for the post you are interested in, if not please don’t hesitate to contact us and we can discuss further. Finally, please feel free to ask to come and have a look around, it isn’t mandatory by any means, but academies are very personal places so it will always help you decide if this is the right place for you and I always enjoy showing off what we are about!

I look forward to seeing you soon and showing you our amazing students.

SECONDARY

Across the Trust we pride ourselves on our innovative approach to curriculum design. We want our pupils, regardless of their starting points and barriers, to believe their curriculum is bold, exciting, purposeful, and ultimately leads to something meaningful for them.

We constantly seek to innovate and provide better opportunities to develop both knowledge and skills for life. This innovation comes in many forms, including extending school days to provide a world-class enrichment programme and additional opportunities for essential skills development; the introduction of vocational and technical pathways to develop work readiness in our pupils, supported by leading employers and universities; co-constructing curriculum across all EBacc subjects, to create world class programmes, rich in knowledge and skills; We are also driving PedTech across the sector, focusing on fully digitally enhanced curriculum and close to 1:1 device delivery.

We are currently at an exciting point in our evolution, with collaboration at the heart of our endeavour. We value the 'power of the pack' and strive as a collective, ensuring no school or colleague is left behind.

We take an evidence-informed approach to developing the quality of our teaching and learning and value a non-hierarchical, supportive approach to developing great teachers.

This approach has led to a significant reduction in workload, meaning colleagues can spend more time on curriculum delivery and fostering strong relationships with pupils.

As a people-focused trust, we consider the professional development of our staff as a fundamental responsibility. Where any schools face any barrier, it has the mutual support of the others to call upon for subject specific or general support. Our directors have a wealth of leadership experience and subject knowledge and support staff across the trust to design and the deliver the very best academic experience to our pupils.
