We believe in working collaboratively, sharing ideas and supporting each other to achieve great things as we further develop innovative teaching and learning strategies and social, emotional and mental health well-being provision. You should be able to teach across the ability range for KS3 and KS4 and a real interest in developing teaching and learning is also important. Knowledge of the KS2 curriculum would also be advantageous along with alternative GCSE courses/programmes.
