Our school:
We are aiming to create one of the top performing schools in the UK right here in Hastings.
Ark Alexandra Academy is a popular secondary school in Hastings. We operate a ‘One
School, Two Campus’ model, which brings with it unique opportunities for career growth
and development. The school is on an exciting and rapid journey of improvement which is
underpinned by research and best practice. We place primacy on traditional values:
discipline, courtesy and respect. Our students are smart and ready to learn and thrive. We
are a strict no mobile phone school.
As part of the Ark network, Ark Alexandra Academy has access to the dedicated support of
a highly successful MAT with a well-regarded CPD offer for leaders and teachers at all
levels. In addition, the school is part of the Hastings DfE Education Investment Area giving
an increased focus on the region, potential funding, and genuine opportunities for

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.
