We require a well-qualified graduate to teach Geography throughout the Upper School, from September 2020. 

The successful candidate will be passionate about their subject, and willing to contribute to the wider life of a busy boarding and day school. Clifton has an enviable record of success in Geography, with a very high percentage opting to take the subject at both GCSE and A level. 

This position is part time, in the region of 0.5 FTE. It is possible that this role could be combined with the Head of PSHE role in our separate advert or other responsibilities to make a larger, or even full time, role.
