Teacher of Business Studies job summary

Are you a passionate and driven Business Studies teacher looking for an exciting new opportunity?

If you have a love for teaching, a commitment to student success, and the ability to bring business concepts to life in the classroom, we’d love to hear from you!

We are seeking an inspirational Teacher of Business Studies with strong subject knowledge to join our highly successful and dedicated Business and Economics Department. You’ll be part of a team of talented and committed practitioners, working collaboratively to create the best possible learning experience for our pupils.

Business Studies is one of the most popular subjects at Wednesfield Academy, and we proudly offer EDEXCEL GCSE, A-Level Business, and A-Level Economics. Our well-established curriculum is built on clear, consistent learning routines and evidence-based teaching principles that maximise student progress allowing teachers to focus on delivering high quality lessons.

We offer superb professional development opportunities, including the full suite of NPQs. We have “a well-thought-out professional development programme for staff” (Ofsted Feb 25) and work hard as a team.
