Teacher of English

We seek to appoint an outstanding English practitioner with a language or literature background who engages students through creative lessons so that they become confident users of English and analytical thinkers. You will have the experience and ability to teach across all age and ability ranges from KS3 to KS4: the opportunity to teach to KS5 may arise for the right candidate.

This is an exciting opportunity for a passionate and dynamic teacher who is eager to try new ideas in a supportive environment. Join a team which aims to inspire, motivate and challenge every student at all levels of prior ability by developing the skills needed to read, understand and analyse a wide range of different texts and write clearly and imaginatively.

Our English curriculum prepares students to communicate effectively, supporting learning across the curriculum and for the world beyond the classroom. We encourage a love of language and literature in all students and aim to harness the creativity within to help students make progress and achieve success.

Furthermore, you will have a proven track record and display ambition for all members of the school community.

You will receive high-quality support and CPD from expert colleagues who will coach and guide you through your professional development. This is an ideal opportunity to work in a friendly and supportive environment.

If you are enthusiastic and highly motivated, relish a challenge and believe that you could contribute to our English department, we would like to hear from you.

You will: 

• Be an outstanding practitioner, with the energy to inspire, motivate and challenge students
• Have a proven track record in raising achievement in English at all Key Stages
• Have a positive, can do attitude with colleagues and students
• Believe in the right of every student to fulfil their potential
• Have excellent interpersonal skills and be a real team player
