Job overview
The La Mare de Carteret High School are looking to appoint with effect from 1st September 2019 (with flexibility) an enthusiastic, dynamic and well-qualified, specialist graduate teacher with the vision and energy to deliver high standards of teaching and learning in the English Department, and to make a full contribution to the ethos, identity and life of the School and to the Guernsey Federation of Secondary Schools.
About the Education Service
La Mare de Carteret High School currently operates as part of the Guernsey Federation of Secondary Schools which includes St Sampson’s, Les Beaucamps La Mare De Carteret and Guernsey Grammar School and Sixth Form alongside St Anne’s School in Alderney. Secondary and Post 16 education is undergoing a period of exciting change on the Island which includes a planned new structure with one 11-18 all ability school on two sites.
The drivers in Secondary phase education for this significant transformation are: equality of educational experience and outcomes, equality of opportunity and access, and efficient and effective use of resources.
Employed by the States of Guernsey and based at La Mare de Carteret High School, you will be required to maximise opportunities for collaborative working, teaching and learning across Key Stages and shared professional development across schools. There is an expectation that you will engage in cross-school collaboration which may require working on more than one site to meet the needs of the Education Service. The transition plans for the new structure may also mean you will work from an alternative site.
The post holder will be required to teach English throughout KS3 and KS4 across the ability range including GCSE in English Language and Literature.
The job description is subject to the general conditions of service for a teacher as set out in the Education Department’s Terms and Conditions for teachers in Guernsey.
