Job overview

TEACHER OF DRAMA

part-time (0.6 or up to full-time if a second subject or sport is offered) 

This is an excellent opportunity to join a friendly, dynamic school where all can thrive and staff are highly valued.

We are seeking a vibrant practitioner who will be able to deliver drama across KS3, KS4 and at A Level. Facilities are modern and excellent. The post-holder should have excellent interpersonal skills and good organisational ability. We are renowned for the wide range of highly creative and extensive extra-curricular activities offered. 

Here are some of the key reasons Tiffin is a great School in which to work:

• a vibrant and friendly staff, with a diverse mix of teachers and associate staff

“an amazing school environment. Supportive and friendly staff. Incredible extra-curricular opportunities. An environment where learning for its own sake (rather than just for passing exams) is encouraged and fostered.” (current teacher)

• very bright and able students who are motivated and eager to learn, in an  environment of excellent behaviour

“as our son departs the school he certainly has an exceptional set of qualifications in his pocket, but he carries with him so much more from his time as a Tiffinian: a thirst for learning and an enquiring mind; a keen sense of self-identify; strong peer friendships as well as a bucket-full of happy memories from his schooldays.” (ex-parent)

• an opportunity to teach your subject to a high level

“as I depart for University I would be very grateful if you could pass on my thanks to all the  teachers who have helped and supported me over the last seven years and  allowed me to make  the most of all the fantastic opportunities I have been given.” (ex-student)

• a commitment to professional development, eg, part-time study for Education  Masters of Research (MResEd) at Kingston University 

• a location close to Kingston town centre, and excellent public transport links to  Central London, minutes away from the train and bus stations. We are close to  Richmond and Bushy Parks, and the Surrey countryside. Our sports ground is  beautifully situated with the River Thames and Hampton Court Palace very close by

• benefits include: season ticket loan/Cycle to Work scheme/salary advance scheme  for a rental deposit /free on-site parking / enhanced maternity benefits

About Tiffin School

Tiffin School is one of the foremost boys' selective schools in the country with a large Sixth Form which went mixed in 2019.

Tiffin is a great place to teach – it is a friendly, dynamic school where all can thrive and staff are highly valued. Conveniently situated near the centre of the beautiful London Borough of Kingston upon Thames, it is very easy to reach. Our students are bright, able and eager to learn, and we have an environment of excellent behaviour, allowing the opportunity to teach your subject to a high level.

Tiffin achieves excellent results at A Level and GCSE, as well as great success in achieving places for our students at the top universities. However, Tiffin is about far more than academic success; our aim is to develop the whole person.  Tiffin offers a wide range of superb opportunities for its students in our attempt to fulfil our vision of inspiring students to ‘engage, aspire and excel’.  Sport, Music, the Performing Arts, the House system, and an extensive programme of trips, provide regular opportunities for the students, and are offered by a staff that enthusiastically support this unique provision of co-curricular activities in a state school.

The move to make the Sixth Form mixed, the introduction of Google Chromebooks to all pupils and staff, and the significant recent capital expenditure in new buildings and facilities, all demonstrate our commitment to constantly develop the school for the future.

Tiffin offers an excellent place to teach and to develop one’s career in a stimulating, supportive and enjoyable education environment.
