English Department 2ic

The London Nautical School requires an English Department 2ic to join our dynamic team here on London’s South Bank. This role would suit an experienced teacher who now seeks to take responsibility for shaping key areas in the Department.

Our school has a unique history, operates in a brilliant listed building on the South Bank of the Thames and contains a team who are both proud of our track record and ambitious to develop further. Our department strives to embrace the richness of a proud English literary heritage, the affordances of our being located in the heart of London’s cultural mecca and the thrill of working with a broad and multi-ethnic intake of young Londoners.

In our teachers we prize innovation, rigour and passion in equal measure. Teachers of English at The London Nautical School experience a high degree of autonomy and thrive in a culture of professional respect and collegiality. We seek applicants who can demonstrate that they embrace their professional role in all its dimensions. 

The London Nautical School, with its 650 students, is a close-knit, warm environment. We seek colleagues who value this and wish to contribute to the wider life of the school.
