Teacher of English

‘Leaders have created a culture in which the school’s values of kindness, decency and a strong work ethic are lived out by pupils and staff’ Ofsted July 2023

We are looking to appoint a Teacher of English to join our experienced and highly successful curriculum team. The successful candidate will have a passion for working with children and young people, be creative, dynamic, enthusiastic, hardworking and resilient. Our school is high-performing and we are ambitious for every single one of our pupils.

‘Pupils, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), achieve well across the curriculum and exceptionally in subjects such as English and Mathematics.’ Ofsted July 2023

This opportunity is open to professionals at whatever stage in their career, whether you are looking for a first appointment, a new challenge or a fresh start. In return, you will join a happy and harmonious school community that prides itself on valuing its best asset, the staff. The work-life balance of colleagues is taken very seriously by the Headteacher and both staff turn-over and absence are very low. This is a great place to work!

‘Leaders at all levels act with integrity. They place pupils’ interests at the centre of their decision-making. Leaders consider the impact of their decisions on staff well-being. Staff recognise leaders’ consideration and feel valued in their roles.’ Ofsted July 2023

We do not take recruitment lightly. Choosing a teacher to be responsible for so many student outcomes is taken very seriously and not ever done for the sake of filling a gap. It is really equally important to us that the right candidate chooses our school because they believe in what we are trying to achieve and the way in which we do this. The job is never done and every year we have different students arriving all with their unique personalities, aspirations and desires. We celebrate this and do whatever it takes to make sure they have the best possible memories of school but also the right academic profile.

The school is deceptively accessible within the Yorkshire and Humberside area, with colleagues travelling from as far afield as Grimsby, Leeds, York and Wakefield. The school is set in the village of Auckley and benefits from extensive grounds. New College Doncaster is situated next door where many of our young people progress to post-16. 

We do encourage those interested in joining us to visit the school to get a feel for our culture and ethos. Application forms can be found on the TES vacancies section and the school website together with further information. Please contact HR Manager, Paula Kynman, 01302 770579, pky@thehayfieldschool.co.uk.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our students and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. An Enhanced DBS check will be required for this post. We aim for diversity within our workforce.
