· Self-aware, reflective and committed to constant evaluation of your own impact?
· Relentlessly positive in outlook, able to embrace change and ‘make things happen’?
· Always ready for the unexpected, facing each new challenge with a smile?
Are you looking for a school where…
· You can make a significant personal contribution to a vibrant, forward-thinking Humanities team?
· A growth mindset is expected, and developing existing strength is considered as important as addressing weakness?
· Humanity and humour are seen to be essential qualities?
· You will be fully supported in your own professional development, whatever your aspirations?
If the answer is ‘yes’ to all of the above, then we’d love to hear from you!
