Job overview
Temporary teacher of A Level Business
We are looking to recruit a well-qualified teacher who is able to teach A Level Business across years 12 and 13, for the first half of the autumn term 2018 (3 September – 19 October).
This is to cover for a newly appointed member of staff who cannot take up their post until the second half of term. The successful candidate will work alongside an experienced team of teachers in a highly successful department, led by our Head of Business, Jonathan Young. Full support, specification information (we teach the AQA specification) and schemes of work will be provided, but the successful candidate will need to be able to jump straight in to teaching both Lower Sixth students, who are just commencing their A Level course, and Upper Sixth students, who will be part way through their course. As such, this post is likely to suit someone who has experience and familiarity of teaching A Level Business (although prior experience is not an absolute requirement).
The position is potentially a full-time one, but part-time options will also be actively considered and may work well.

About d'Overbroeck's
THE SCHOOL
d’Overbroeck’s is a co-educational independent day and boarding school in Oxford for students aged 11 – 18. The school roll currently stands at around 750, and this is set to grow in the coming years.
Founded in 1977, initially as a Sixth Form, d’Overbroeck’s has maintained its founding values throughout its growth.
We believe in outstanding teaching and laughter. We celebrate the individual and foster a culture that promotes collaboration and originality. We pride ourselves on our unique blend of social informality and academic rigour.
d’Overbroeck’s consists of three sections:
Years 7-11 – 200 students; currently all day students although open to boarders from next year. Based at Leckford Place, OX2 6HX.
Sixth Form – 440 students; a mixture of day and boarding. Domestic and international. Based at a purpose-built site at 333 Banbury Road.
The International School – around 125 international students who are all boarders, across years 9-11.
All in all, this is a busy and happy educational environment in which staff and students enjoy positive relationships based on mutual respect and a shared sense of purpose. As our most recent ISI inspection report puts it:
‘A defining characteristic of d’Overbroeck’s is its close-knit, informal atmosphere within which students grow in confidence, self-esteem, respect for themselves and for others. Students are very supportive of each other and behaviour throughout is excellent, exemplified in considerate, warm relationships.
In its key findings, our most recent inspection report (2021) found that our students are highly motivated with extremely positive attitudes to learning. They were described as successful collaborative learners who are naturally inclusive. They were said to have a remarkably strong sense of self understanding and excellent awareness of how to improve and achieve their goals.
