Teacher of Psychology

Notting Hill & Ealing High School, one of London’s leading independent girls’ day schools, has an exciting opportunity for an exceptional individual to teach Psychology up to A Level and prepare students for university entrance (including Oxbridge).  Applications are welcomed from either qualified teachers or graduate qualified professionals working within the field of Psychology (appropriate support will be provided to assist you into a teaching role). 

Working two days a week (there is some flexibility for the right candidate) you will share your passion for Psychology to our highly motivated sixth form girls. If you are a good communicator who can enthuse and inspire about the teaching of Psychology and the ways in which it can be further developed and encouraged and are willing to participate in the extra-curricular life of the school, we would be delighted to hear from you.

Psychology at NHEHS

Psychology is a popular and successful subject, and our results are consistently outstanding. There are currently two Year 12 groups and one Year 13 group working towards the OCR A-level. The Psychology department has its own designated teaching space and is well equipped with resources both in the department and in the school library. The school has generous IT provision and support for both staff and pupils.

Teaching at NHEHS

“Teaching here is all about being able to have in-depth conversations with students about your subject and helping to enthuse them with the same passion as you have. Teaching at NHEHS is exactly what I imagined teaching would be like when I got my first teaching job; it’s what teaching should be!”
