We are looking for an inspiring individual to lead English at an outstanding school. You may be an experienced middle leader or can demonstrate leadership potential. You should be a good Honours graduate and be able to teach post-16 to the highest academic standard.
English is studied by all students throughout the School including the Sixth Form as part of the IB Diploma. Students in Years 7–11 and in our co-ed Sixth Form become increasingly independent learners as they progress through the School and achieve excellent outcomes at GCSE and in the internationally recognised IB Diploma. Experience of teaching the IB is not essential as training is offered. However, the successful candidate should have experience of teaching post-16 English to the highest academic standard.
