Head of Drama Department

Come and work for a great school in a great location.  Cornwall has far more than just beaches, surfing and world heritage countryside, we also have some of the best schools in the country with the space, facilities and drive to give the best possible education to the students we serve.

Truro is Cornwall's county town, it’s only city and the most southern city in mainland Great Britain.   Truro has a booming population thanks to its location in the heart of the county and is a centre for art, culture and entertainment.

Richard Lander School is Truro’s largest secondary school.  It is situated to the West of the city centre and serves the beautiful coastal communities of St. Agnes and Porthtowan as well as communities closer at hand. Richard Lander is highly regarded in the area and oversubscribed. At the heart of our work is a desire to see all our young people develop their gifts and talents to their full potential. Some people call this ambition, we call it ’being the best you can be’.

We are looking for an inspiring and engaging Drama teacher to take on the position of the Head of our Drama Department.  

Closing date for applications is 12 noon on Friday 11th February and the interviews will be held on Thursday 17th February 2022.

Our school is welcoming and supportive, with a strong value placed on ‘being the best you can be’ and staff and students on a mission to achieve great outcomes for all our students.  If you are interested in working with us, please apply as soon as possible, interviews will be held on a rolling programme.
