We are seeking, from September 2023, an experienced Teacher for pupils from Reception to KS1. This may suit a newly qualified teacher as well as someone more experienced. The post is either residential or day with some residential duties.

Besides the ability to teach to a high standard, an enthusiasm for all areas of School Life is essential. This is, therefore, an exciting opportunity for someone who is also looking to get involved in the other areas of the curriculum such as sport, music or drama.

All staff at the School benefit from a 50% fee reduction for their children attending the School. Staff are on Main Scale up to Scale Point 6. The School also operates a pension scheme. On-site bed-sit accommodation and food is available in exchange for boarding duties for anyone interested in joining our small residential team. All staff residential and non-residential, are involved with our boarders by being on duty for one weekday evening each week and one weekend day every three / four weeks. 

All applications will be considered immediately on receipt and so early applications are encouraged.
