Physical Education department

The Physical Education department is looking to appoint a motivated and inspirational 2IC P.E, to join an ambitious and successful PE team and provide leadership support to our Head of Department. P.E is a popular subject with a history of excellent outcomes. Our P.E. Department is high performing, friendly and supportive. Within the department, there is a collaborative approach to teaching and learning, where expertise and good practice is shared to ensure high quality teaching and learning.

The school has enjoyed sporting success at local, London and regional level, particularly in cricket and table-tennis. We have strong links with Essex Cricket and are planning to run an elite player programme alongside our curriculum. We take pride in competing in a wide range of sports. We have recently developed our onsite sports facilities including a new sports hall and cardio and weights studio.

We offer a number of courses including GCSE P.E. and CNAT Sport Studies at KS4. A Level P.E. at KS5 was a new addition for September 2023. Experience in teaching one or more of these courses will be advantageous.
