Teacher of English

Full time (part time considered 0.8 FTE)

Bournemouth Collegiate School is part of United Learning, a large and growing group of schools aiming to offer a life changing education to children and young people across England. Schools within United Learning work as a team and achieve more by sharing than any single school could. By collecting expertise and combining resources, we help to make the tough job of teaching a little easier. With a shared curriculum and lesson plans from around the group available to all, our teachers have strong foundations to lead the engaging, rounded education our children deserve. Our intranet site, United Hub, is just one example of how we share this resource and communicate across sites, helping to simplify processes and manage workloads for an improved work-life balance. We reward our staff: with wide career opportunities – between Primary and Secondary, Academy and Independent – better pay, benefits, and ultimately the satisfaction of helping every child at each of our schools to succeed and reach their full potential.

BCS is looking to appoint a professional and talented Teacher of English with excellent communication skills to teach throughout the age and ability range.

We are looking for a committed and forward thinking professional who will contribute to the growth of this important subject area. Applicants will need to demonstrate the ability to be an effective team member, they will show how they have or will contribute strategies and resources to support this growing department and will show a thorough commitment to pupil learning.

The ideal candidate will be enthusiastic and passionate about the teaching and learning of English, with the vision, commitment and determination to continue raising standards across all levels and abilities and further contribute to the progress of our pupils.
