Radley College are inviting applications for the role of Teacher of Classics from September 2024. This is an exciting opportunity to teach in a successful and innovative department within a friendly and collegiate school community. The Classics Department consists of a friendly team of six teachers, all of whom are united in their enthusiasm for teaching about the Classical World. The Department is large and flourishing, playing a central role in the academic and cultural life of the school.

An experienced teacher seeking a move into a strong department will find there is plenty of opportunity for responsibility and career development. We have also had much success in inducing those who are new to the profession. Thus, we also welcome applications from those who are just finishing their studies.

This position comes with accommodation which is free of rent, council tax and water rates, a competitive salary scale and several other staff benefits.

A willingness to be fully involved in the extra-curricular life of a busy and thriving boarding school is essential. Further details, including an application form, are on the school’s website: www.radley.org.uk/about-radley/employment/working-at-radley.
