Prince Albert High is a free school which opened in September 2021 to a cohort of 180 students. Our aspirations for our cohort are no different to the aspirations that we have for our own children. Our aim is to develop a generation of young people who will not only transform their own life chances but make the world a better place too. Prince Albert High is unique because it is one of the very few secondary schools where the incoming year 7 students and their families are well-known by our school. As we expand to include a sixth form, we are excited to offer an opportunity for a passionate and dedicated English teacher to join our team, who can teach up to Key Stage 4 and 5.

We are looking to appoint a teacher who is energetic, committed, and excited about producing an outstanding generation of young people who will not only transform their own life chances but make the world a better place.
