An exciting opportunity has arisen for an enthusiastic, innovative and well qualified Teacher of Physical Education. Applicants need to be able to teach PE at KS3, GCSE and A Level. This position would suit either an experienced practitioner or an early careers teacher.

The successful candidate will have the opportunity to make a meaningful impact, both within and beyond the classroom.
