Teacher of BTEC Health & Social Care job summary

Job title: Teacher of BTEC Health & Social Care

Grade: MPS / UPS + London Fringe

Hours: Part-time (additional hours may be available depending on subject offer)

Responsible to: Head of Health Faculty

Start date: September 2026

Contract: Permanent

We are seeking an enthusiastic teacher of BTEC Health and Social Care to join a friendly and supportive Health Faculty that achieves excellent results and high standards. This is a part-time role and candidates interested in teaching additional hours should make this clear in their statement of application, referring to subjects that they may be able to offer. We are looking for a creative and imaginative individual to help all our students to ‘achieve their potential and enjoy the journey’ along the way. Health and Social Care is a very well established subject at both Level 2 and Level 3 with many of our pupils going on to further study and careers in the care sector. The collaborative working environment in the Health Faculty encourages continuous professional development and career progression for staff. The Faculty makes a significant contribution to the school and staff and pupils work together to promote healthy minds in healthy bodies. We welcome applications from both ECTs and experienced staff.

Visitors tell us that our school is a friendly, lively and stimulating community where we emphasise the importance of the individual’s contribution and take pleasure in sharing and celebrating achievement. They commend the good behaviour of the pupils and their thirst for knowledge. Bishop’s is a diverse community that offers mutual support and encouragement and expects everyone within it to respect others’ heritage, cultures, religion and beliefs. We hope that the values, self-discipline and sense of personal worth that pupils gain here will be a support throughout their lives as British and Global Citizens. We welcome applications from candidates from racially minoritised backgrounds and from other groups that are underrepresented in the UK education system.

Bishop’s Hatfield Girls’ School is heavily over-subscribed and has around 950 pupils on roll including the Sixth Form. We are fully committed to our values of teamwork, respect, honesty, trust, kindness and ambition. The school completed its most recent Ofsted inspection in December 2022 and was judged to continue to be Outstanding. However, we are not driven by Ofsted and our priorities lie in supporting our pupils to develop their knowledge, skills and character through the ‘Bishop’s 360’ model. The school has benefited from a total rebuild on the same site and enjoys excellent state of the art facilities. BHGS holds International School Status, the Music Mark and is a Fairtrade School. Hatfield is within easy reach of London and other areas and the London Fringe Allowance is payable.

This is an exciting opportunity to join the school at a time of growth and development.

The school's Admissions’ Code gives priority places to children of staff and we give high priority to staff development. Staff are able to apply for our Professional Development Award which provides bursary payments to help finance CPD that goes beyond the school’s usual training programme.

We take safeguarding of our students extremely seriously and an enhanced disclosure will be sought through the Disclosure and Barring Service as part of the school’s pre-employment checks.

If you would like to visit us, prior to making an application, and see for yourself how our girls learn in a vibrant, supportive environment please contact Sally Fullerton at sfullerton@bishophatfield.herts.sch.uk.
