Job overview
Stamford (Resident) Graduate Teacher Development Programme
The Stamford Endowed Schools are offering a fantastic opportunity for EIGHT recent graduates to join our schools for two year development posts, beginning September 2017.
We would like to hear from graduates from all disciplines who are passionate, not just about their subject, but who can also offer leadership in some element of the schools' extra-curricular programme, and who are interested in gaining experience in teaching. Successful applicants who are accepted onto the programme will become members of the academic staff, playing a full role in our busy independent day and boarding schools. Two of the positions will be working solely with children up to Year 6, this will involve swimming activities and other relevant sports.
If, after the first year, a Teaching Development Graduate wishes to pursue a career in teaching, we will assist in supporting a part-time PGCE course so that they will leave Stamford with enhanced career prospects and the invaluable experience of teaching and living in a busy independent school.
The Stamford Endowed Schools is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

The Schools are part of the great heritage of Stamford and a symbol of its vibrancy and evolution. The Schools have been established in Stamford since 1532, providing a first class education for children. Today the Schools remain interwoven with Stamford life, to which our students, teachers and parents contribute greatly. At Stamford we have one simple and overriding aim, that is to inspire our students and light fires within them.
The schools educate 1650 pupils at the Stamford Junior School for children aged 2-11, Stamford School for students aged 11-16, and Stamford Sixth Form for students aged 16-18.
This is a really exciting time to be joining the School as after nearly 500 years as a boys’ school and 200 years as a girls’ school, we have joined together as a fully co-educational school. This restructure is giving us the opportunity to look at all aspects of school life with fresh eyes, and we are looking at everything from how we provide the best possible pastoral care to how we shape the timetable, how we make best use of our estate, to how AI can support classroom learning. It is a big change, but a once in a generation opportunity to really set up the School for the next hundred years.
After this positive change, stamfordians will still be able to leave here poised for success in the real world - quietly confident, kind, positive, hardworking, unassuming and resilient. We are independent schools nurturing independent minds.
"I love the idea of preparing our kids from the school room to the boardroom in the 21st century, wherever that boardroom is in a rainforest in Brazil or as a CEO or working with a charity in India. Just as we have a big responsibility, so will they. I want them not just to be content to live in the world but to change it. Exciting!”
Principal, Will Phelan
