Job overview
Rose Hill wish to appoint a Year 3 Class Teacher (maternity cover)
Rose Hill offers an exceptional all-round education. The school is filled with happy, busy, enthusiastic children. Its recent endorsement in Tatler's renowned Schools Guide has cemented its position as one of the leading prep schools in the country. This follows a hugely successful inspection, where the school was rated 'excellent in all areas' by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Tucked away amongst the quiet residential streets in Tunbridge Wells, the 300-pupil school has superb facilities in beautiful 18 acre grounds. In addition to a Sports Hall and new all-weather astro-turf, the school also has an impressive 220-seater theatre, and art and technology departments. A teaching block which incorporates a science lab, two computer suites, a learning skills department and medical room, as well as six classrooms was opened in 2013. Last year the school opened an outdoor classroom. Research shows that creativity thrives in outdoor learning environments and the purpose built classroom has enhanced the school's varied curriculum. The school's outdoor classroom builds on this innovative educational approach and is used to inspire and enthuse children across the school. Building is currently underway for an indoor swimming pool. The school's average class size is between 16 and 18, ensuring that teachers have great relationships with pupils and know them as individuals. This may go some way to explaining impressive scholarship results across a breadth of subjects including drama, design, art, sport, music along with strong academic results at the age of 11 and 13.
