Working at Manchester Academy

We hope that if you are reading this page you are already thinking about joining us on our journey to provide a world-class education for all our students.

Take a look at some of the information on the left to get a flavour of why we believe Manchester Academy is a fantastic place to build your career.

“After spending my PGCE training at Manchester Academy I knew that there was no other place for me. I chose this school because it has been an absolute inspiration to work with some of the most innovative and exciting teachers I have ever met.

Every day brings new challenges that require us all to use our imagination to try and make the students' education the best it can be. I can honestly say that Manchester Academy is a thoroughly enjoyable place to work!"

Mr Hurst
Teacher of Science

"At Manchester Academy each day is a new experience with 100’s of smiling faces eager to great you. Children are energetic, enthusiastic and creative and this makes teaching fun and enjoyable every day! Teachers are encouraged to improve by sharing good practise with colleagues and are supported by the Teaching and Learning Faculty. 

The academy embraces new talent and has a great training and NQT programme. There is a real sense of teamwork to ensure both children and staff are progressing and continually developing. If you like to be challenged, work hard and enjoy working with children from a diverse range of cultures form around the world, Manchester Academy is the place to be!"

Ms O'Connell
Teacher of Transition

"As an R.E. teacher, I chose Manchester Academy because I wanted to help pupils challenge the world around them, ask the big questions in life and reflect on their own beliefs and values.

I made the right choice – the best bit about Manchester Academy is that you are given room to grow as a teacher – you are encouraged to try different approaches and to take risks (with a small ‘r’!!!) in the classroom.

You are fully supported as well so that you can become the best teacher you can be – from Teaching and Learning workshops to share ideas to boost classroom practice, right up to a free Masters programme at Warwick University."

Teacher of Religious Education
