Reading is important, because if you can read, you can learn anything about everything and everything about anything?—Tomie de Paola

• Are you passionate about children becoming avid readers with a love of books?
• Have you achieved good impact in developing pupils as writers?
• Do you have successful experience of leading Literacy in a school and providing high-quality CPD for other teachers?

We are seeking an ambitious, well- motivated Teaching and Learning Adviser for Literacy to join our highly-regarded School Improvement Team.

This is an exciting opportunity to make a positive impact on the outcomes pupils in Peterborough achieve in phonics, reading, writing and GPS.

The role involves work in our schools to support them in developing their Literacy provision, planning and delivering the Local Authority CPD programme for Literacy and leading the KS2 moderation process for KS2 writing on behalf of the Local Authority.

The successful applicant will have excellent subject knowledge in all aspects of Primary Literacy, including assessment.

Now is a great time to join us and be part of this service. In return for working with us, you will have access to an amazing range of benefits including:

• Generous annual leave entitlement starting at 25 days per year + bank holidays (FTE) + option to purchase up to an additional ten days per year (FTE)
• Comprehensive pension scheme with employer contributions of 17.5% (current)
• Immediate life cover (x3 times your annual salary) and ill-health protection (applicable to those enrolled in LGPS)
• Flexible and hybrid working opportunities
• Discounted private medical insurance
• Access to a car lease salary sacrifice and cycle to work scheme
• Funded professional or subscription fees where qualification or membership of a professional body is an essential part of the role

Appointment to this post will be subject to the outcome of an Enhanced Disclosure obtained through the Disclosure and Barring Service. The Council is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

We are proud to serve the diverse communities of Peterborough and want our workforce to reflect this diversity, which we believe is beneficial for our employees, the organisation and the communities we serve.
