Job overview

Required for September 2018 to join the committed and mutually supportive academic staff team in this highly regarded central London performing arts school.

The school is co-educational, catering for 250 students from 10-16 who receive a high standard of academic education to GCSE level alongside their vocational training.

The post is part time, as are all academic teaching posts. The position requires 3 full days teaching on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. There is no flexibility in this respect as all academic lessons take place on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to allow for Thursday and Friday to be devoted entirely to vocational training. 

The academic staff work as a supportive team with everyone taking responsibility for their own classes, and sharing responsibility for their subject area with other teachers of the same subject. There are no heads of department. The level of knowledge and responsibility required to operate within this very successful structure means that the post is not suitable for an NQT.

The school is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to safeguarding children. An Enhanced DBS check will be required.

Closing date:  Monday 18th June
