We require an enthusiastic and successful English teacher to work in this high achieving and oversubscribed 11 - 16 community school. If you have a passion for teaching and learning and are a motivated team player who is committed to getting the best out of pupils, we would like to hear from you. 

The successful candidate will need to be able to teach across the age and attainment range at both key stage 3 and 4. We welcome applications from ECTs and from those with experience. We offer an excellent ECT programme and we ensure that all members of staff experience an interesting Professional Learning programme which is grounded in research.

The Romsey School has been an academy since July 2011. In April 2019, in conjunction with Oakfield Primary School Totton, we formed the Gateway Multi Academy Trust. As part of our trust we have formed strategic partnerships with the Halterworth Teaching Alliance and Barton Peveril College in order that as the trust grows we can support young people of all ages. In addition, we have our own trading arm, Romsey Community School Limited (RCS Ltd), that supports adult and family learning across Hampshire. On the school site we have our own nursery, Little Sunlights. We are all very proud of our school and its role in the local community. We have an active Governing Body which has an excellent working relationship with the staff body. The school site has seen many recent improvements due to our successful bids to the DfE, which have enabled us to provide some of the best educational provision in the county.

About The Romsey School     

The Romsey School is an 11-16 mixed comprehensive academy, situated in Romsey in Hampshire. The school, which converted to an academy in 2011 has approximately 1,200 students on the school roll.      

The school has a distinctive ethos that successfully combines success and achievement within a happy, supportive and caring environment. It is very important to us that every child should have an opportunity to thrive within a highly personalised curriculum that recognises the diversity of talent within our pupils. The last Ofsted report commented that this is a school where teachers give pupils demanding work to do and ask probing questions which require pupils to work hard and think deeply.  In many ways we are a traditional school in terms of uniform and a belief in firm but fair discipline. But we are also a school that recognises that we have a responsibility to prepare pupils for this fast changing world we live in.
