This post is suitable for a NQT or an experienced teacher

Cox Green is a well-established co-educational Academy school, situated in the heart of the community of Cox Green, Maidenhead. We have been graded “good” by Ofsted and are oversubscribed year on year; testimony to the quality of teaching and learning we provide. As one of the top performing schools in the area we take pride in getting the most out of each of our students. Last year 75% of our GCSE students achieved grades 4+ in English and Maths. Visitors comment on the excellent relationships that exist and that student behaviour is very good. Our students thrive in an environment committed to achievement, supported by our team of excellent teachers and pastoral staff.

Both Drama and English departments at Cox Green School are thriving and highly successful. They offer a wide variety of extra-curricular trips and visits as well as bringing the curriculum to life. The Drama Department prides itself on ensuring that every student has the opportunity to participate in Drama in and out of lessons. We aim to build confidence and equip students with the necessary skills to face the world. Our school production is an important part of the school year and we take pride in producing high quality performances that are inclusive to all. The focus of the English department is to ensure every child leaves the school with an English qualification which prepares them for the world of work and beyond.

We are seeking a passionate teacher who is able to deliver excellent lessons that are exciting, engaging and inclusive. Suitable for an NQT or an experienced teacher. An experienced teacher would ideally have proven experience of teaching at KS3, KS4 and KS5.

We place great emphasis on staff professional development and we offer outstanding training and support. Cox Green School also takes a leading role in the Teach Maidenhead programme, the region's teacher training provider.
