What skills and experience we're looking for

The Governors are seeking to appoint a dynamic, creative, and suitably qualified teacher of English to join our highly successful school. This exciting opportunity will involve teaching English across KS3, KS4, and possibly KS5, within a supportive and thriving department.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about English and education, with a genuine desire to inspire and motivate students to achieve their full potential. As an innovative classroom practitioner, you will have high expectations for both yourself and your students, ensuring a stimulating learning environment where all pupils can flourish.

You will be joining a dedicated and supportive English team, who are committed to continually building on our already strong subject knowledge and fostering a collaborative, positive approach to teaching. We are focused on developing a curriculum that celebrates diversity and ensures all students, from different backgrounds, can engage with and succeed in English.

Our ideal candidate will bring a fresh perspective to our department and have the ability to tailor their approach to meet the varied needs of our students. If you are an enthusiastic, forward-thinking educator with a passion for fostering a love of literature and language, we would love to hear from you.

ABOUT US
You want your child to thrive. So do we.

To us, this means celebrating each child's unique God-given gifts and abilities to help them become all that they want to be.

It's a priority for us that each student is given the right level of opportunity, support and challenge to help them grow and excel.

We are the largest Catholic School in England and our size allows us to provide something for everyone at many different levels, both within our curriculum and our exceptionally wide range of extra-curricular clubs and experiences.

Strong pastoral care and clear behavioural systems enable us to raise our students in a warm, secure environment built on Caritas, the Catholic principle of kindness.

By combining this with a culture of excellence (our personal best) and academic challenge, we work together with our families to send out confident, compassionate, independent young people ready for the world ahead of them.

This is the Newman Way: Caritas, Excellence, Together. We have 50 years' experience of this, and we are confident that your child will thrive with us.
