Teacher of PE (female)

We invite you to join our team at Trinity Academy. Trinity is a highly oversubscribed free school that opened in 2019. We are a values-based community that focuses on the learning of all students and staff, that cares deeply for our young people and each other and that is committed to co-curricular enrichment. Our stated goal is to be a +1 school for progress and as such, we are looking for an exceptional teacher to join us in our mission.

Amplify Education is a dynamic new multi-academy trust of 22 schools across Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset, formed through the thoughtful and planned merger of TiLA and CST. United by a shared vision, we are a bold voice for Bristol – committed to building belief in every young person, expanding opportunities, nurturing potential, and strengthening citizenship. We are ambitious, reflective, and collaborative – driven to improve outcomes for young people while working together, learning from one another and continually strengthening our practice.

The Opportunity: We are looking for a motivated and impactful PE teacher to join our ambitious PE team from September 2026. This is an exciting opportunity to join a successful department and be part of its journey from excellent to world class. We are looking for candidates who relish the challenges and rewards of working in a highly ambitious school. Due to the nature of the role and the need to supervise our female students in the changing rooms before and after PE lessons, we are seeking a female PE teacher.
