Teacher of English

Do you have a genuine passion for education? Why not join a forward thinking Academy and a Trust with a truly collaborative focus on providing inclusive learning experiences, ensuring schools where everyone, staff and students, can be happy and thrive.  

We are now looking for a dynamic, enthusiastic and creative Teacher of English to join our successful, supportive and mutually ambitious team.  The successful candidate will join a forward thinking academy and a Trust with a truly collaborative focus on providing inclusive learning experiences and ensuring schools where everyone, staff and students, can be happy and thrive.  

We are looking for someone with the ability to contribute to the provision of the best opportunities for attainment and progress for all learners in English, who is able to inspire and develop engaging classroom practice and to be aspirational for themselves and others. A passion for developing learning with creative ideas, and an ability to build positive relationships and embed an enjoyment of your subject into lessons is essential.

As a teacher in the Faculty, you will work with a committed team of specialist English teachers and will be involved in reviewing and developing schemes of work and resources, addressing gaps with students who are struggling and ensuring overall progression for the students in the classes you teach.  

For our staff, we are firmly committed to ensuring this is a job that can be enjoyed, where everyone can flourish, because we pay close attention to work/home balance. Across the Trust, we continue to develop strategies that take a common-sense approach to those aspects of the role that could become an unnecessary burden on workload - these include a proactive behaviour for learning approach which empowers teachers to focus on teaching, including centralised detentions and smart assessment, feedback & marking processes which minimise time spent on onerous tasks. 

In our schools we have a focus on individual excellence, we enjoy good standards of behaviour and we have a pragmatic emphasis on the balance between challenge and support, high expectation and nurture. This is common for students and staff, teaching and non-teaching, so that our schools develop a family ethos, where everyone wants the best for everyone else.
