Teacher of Maths

We are a leading co-educational day school, providing a diverse range of opportunities for young people, from 11 to 18. We serve as the direct feeder school to King Henry VIII Junior School (HMC 3-11).

The school is located on the south side of Coventry, minutes from the railway station and with excellent access to motorways and bus routes.

Our intention is to provide our pupils with a superb education. We are proud of our rich heritage and tradition of academic excellence, which stretch back to 1545, but we are also forward-thinking and quick to adapt in a fast-changing world. We aim to discover each pupil’s potential and to ensure that we help our boys and girls to develop fully in an exciting, challenging and supportive environment.

Entrance to the school is by examination. Entry at Sixth Form level is offered on the basis of GCSE results and interview.

The school offers a wide variety of academic and co curricular activities. Examination results are excellent; most students go on to University, with a significant number gaining places at Oxford and Cambridge.

Extensive computer facilities with a wide range of applications are increasingly used across all areas of the curriculum. plus a fantastic swimming pool complex.

Extra curricular activities include a variety of sports, played at high levels, music, drama, expeditions, The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme, public speaking and debating, to name a few.

King Henry VIII Senior School provides a focal point for our community and there is little doubt that the outstanding facilities enable our students to flourish both academically and as individuals.

Most importantly, it is a happy school and an exciting place to be.

Staff are all well-qualified and enthusiastic, and have high expectations of themselves and their pupils. We received another outstanding inspection report in May 2023. The school has a strong reputation for pastoral care, and teaching staff are committed to co-curricular activities. Generous fee remission for the children of permanent staff is available at all Foundation schools (from age 3) subject to a minimum number of hours worked. There is an excellent and loyal support staff, who understand their vital role in contributing to pupils’ growth and achievements. All staff benefit from free membership of our on-site Sports Club.
