Head of Physical Education

Required for September 2021

Art you an enthusiastic and inspiring teacher with the skills, confidence, creativity and energy to make a positive impact on the lives of our students?

Young people who begin sports early in life are more likely to continue being active as they get older; all students at St Bernard's are encouraged to find activities and sports that interest them so they can carry those habits with them as they get older.  We are therefore committed to providing the wildest possible range of sporting opportunities for all groups of students.

St Bernard's is a bi-lateral girls school Y7-11 with mixed Sixth Form.

We are seeking to appoint an outstanding teacher to lead our successful, enthusiastic and hard-working Physical Education Department.  You will be able to assess students against learning outcomes and ensure all groups of students make progress.  You will be able to ensure that all groups of students, at all key stages are appropriately challenged and supported to achieve their very best.  You will be committed to maintaining and improving our high quality provision.  Leadership experience and a proven track record in raising attainment is desirable.

All new staff are supported within the positive ethos of this happy and high performing school, and to this end all staff complete an applicable induction training programme.  The community at St Bernard's welcome applications from teachers of all faiths or none.

Closing date:  Friday 19 April 2021, 9.00am
