Job overview

At the Telford Priory School we believe that it is a matter of social justice that all students receive an ambitious, diverse, powerful knowledge-rich curriculum, and that they are taught it well and work hard so that they truly learn the curriculum, taking it with them into the world.

We prize subject specialist knowledge and give staff the time and training to develop subject curricula and teaching expertise that bring students into the “great conversations”, teaching them the knowledge and scholarship to experience the best in each of our subjects.

We are committed to teacher wellbeing as a genuine outcome of rewarding, intellectually stimulating work with no pointless or performative activities. We have no written reports, twice-yearly whole-school data drops, centralised detentions, whole-class feedback as part of our commitment to a happy, satisfied, energised staff.

At the foundation of everything we do is a belief that children must behave well in school and that systems and culture must support this. Excellent behaviour enables excellent teaching but perhaps even more importantly it allows children to be happy and feel safe in school, and to develop into positive, engaged, global citizens. Staff and students alike are constantly striving to “become the best versions of ourselves”.

The successful candidate will:

• Have a passion for achieving excellent outcomes for young people

• Have a real enthusiasm for their subject and a commitment to teaching Languages 

• Teach engaging and challenging lessons that are grounded in cognitive science informed pedagogy

• Value enrichment opportunities and be passionate about delivering a high quality extra-curricular programme

• Have the willingness to work with colleagues and reflect upon their practice
