Teacher of Drama

Concord College is England’s premier co-educational boarding school set in the heart of the Shropshire countryside with 577 students aged 13-19. Historic buildings sit alongside our state-of-the-art facilities which include areas providing extra-curricular activities, sport and recreation. We are truly international with upwards of 40 nationalities represented, which creates a wonderfully diverse community.

Academic achievement at Concord College has been described as ‘exceptional’ (ISI 2013). Over the last two academic years, students have achieved an average of 82% A*/A at GCSE and 80% A*/A at A level. We are also delighted that over 80 students have been offered places at Oxford and Cambridge between 2015 and 2018.

We wish to appoint a well-qualified and enthusiastic Teacher of Drama from September 2018.

Applicants should be capable of teaching to GCSE. The ability to teach another subject, such as English, will be an advantage. A willingness to contribute to the broader life of the college is expected and will include organising and delivering an extracurricular Drama Club for lower and upper school students and directing an annual school performance.

We offer a generous remuneration package which includes a salary significantly above Main Scale, a personal tutor allowance, duty payments, free meals, Teachers’ Pensions and private health insurance.

The closing date for applications is 1 February 2018 at midday. Interviews will take place week commencing 12 February 2018.
