What we are looking for

Are you looking to become part of a team of passionate teachers who are committed to delivering a curriculum that develops inquisitive, resilient and thoughtful students? Do you want to contribute to a school that has consistently secured ‘Well Above Average’ GCSE Progress 8 scores for the past 5 years and is the top ranked state school in Northamptonshire for A Level APS (2022/23)? Would you like to work in a school that has been acknowledged as the ‘Top State School (non-grammar) in the East Midlands for 2022 and 2023 according to The Times and The Sunday Times ‘Best Schools’ Guide’, based on the outstanding GCSE and A level results achieved by students?

We are looking for a teacher of English to share in our driven, supportive and aspirational culture who can help deliver our curriculum to the highest standards. We are immensely proud of our curriculum choices across all key stages and the rich diversity of texts to help inspire students’ curiosity – covering everything from medieval literature to dystopian worlds that explore challenging texts across different periods and cultures.

Our department is situated opposite a fantastic library that helps to enrich our delivery and ensure students are given dedicated opportunities to immerse themselves in reading. We offer a truly exciting range of CPD opportunities for all teachers and leaders across the school and are wholly committed to investing in the development of our staff at NSB.
