Job overview

Do you believe in academic and traditional values? Want to teach in a school with pupils with great behaviour?  Want senior leaders and middle leaders who visibly support staff?   

Then join our hugely oversubscribed 11-19 school in lovely community of Bournville, south Birmingham.  We are recruiting a Dance and PE teacher.  

Respect, Aspire, Believe, Commit 

At DEC our values underpin everything that we do.  As a result, our teachers enjoy fantastic behaviour and aspirational, diligent pupils. We are a genuinely comprehensive school providing a knowledge-based education for pupils of all backgrounds in south Birmingham. Our curriculum is academic, rigorous and exciting.

With waiting lists in each year group and hugely improved GCSE results, we are the most oversubscribed school in the area. Demand for places is high: parents and carers want the combination of a traditional education, rigorous behaviour management and our distinctive small school ‘family’ feel.

Excitingly, this year we are hosting ResearchEd Brum with the DfE Behaviour Group Lead Tom Bennett, and in doing so are welcoming fantastic thinkers in education to DEC, such as Daisy Christodoulou, Oliver Caviglioli, Mary Myatt, and the physicist Tom Sherrington.   

This post is an exciting opportunity for an inspirational teacher who has the ability, confidence, and talent to contribute to our PE Faculty which includes expanding provision for Dance.
