Teacher of Business

We are seeking to appoint a talented and enthusiastic Business Studies teacher to join Brentwood County High School in September 2024. 

Due to increasing student numbers, Brentwood County High School is on a journey of improvement and is seeking to appoint additional staff. Following our “Good” Ofsted rating in June 2022 and several years of excellent student outcomes, demand for places in Year 7 and Year 12 have been rising. In February 2024 we  opened the final stage of our £27 million DFE heritage building project. This will provide new state of the art learning environments - including new science, sporting, technology, and art facilities – whilst also retaining the character of the original school buildings that date back over a century.  

The successful candidate will teach Business Studies plus a second subject , and will be creative, innovative, efficient and committed to raising standards. They will have excellent subject knowledge and will join a highly motivated team of superbly collaborative teachers committed to a creative and stimulating approach to teaching and learning, and to instilling a passion for Business Studies and Economics in our students. The successful candidate will hold QTS. 

Applications from teachers at any stage in their career are welcome, including teachers with the ambition to train to become Lead Practitioners; Early Career Teachers; or experienced Unqualified Teachers who are prepared to train to gain qualified teacher status.
