What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking to recruit to our team for September 2024 a passionate, innovative teacher of English. You will be joining a successful and supportive team where you will have the opportunity to teach across the age and ability range at KS3-5. This post would suit trainees and ECTs or staff looking for additional experience in a different school.
We are looking for candidates who:
Are excellent teachers and ethical professionals, with values and integrity at the heart of any philosophy and outlook rather than ego or status.
Have excellent communication and people skills alongside emotional intelligence.
Understand what excellent teaching and learning looks like.
Are passionate about the transformative power of education, care about young people, and are willing to challenge complacency in order to ensure the best possible outcomes for all learners.
What the school offers its staff
In return we can offer you the support of a vibrant, driven senior team, a fantastic modern building, excellent CPD opportunities and great students to work with.
We are a highly aspirational, truly comprehensive 11-18 secondary school of around 1000 students in North Tyneside. Our vision is ambitious and unapologetic: we are creating change in order to be the school of first choice in the local area. We are passionate about equality, fairness and our students achieving the very best they can. We are proud of our traditional values: kindness, integrity, determination, manners, ambition, and positivity. We are a fully inclusive school, in a wonderful modern building, that is dedicated to both supporting and challenging all members of our diverse community and to developing the potential in all our students, regardless of their starting points. Ours is a calm and orderly work environment, based upon high standards of behaviour and an ethos of trust and care. We were rated Good by Ofsted in June 2022 and are due to be oversubscribed again next year.

Longbenton High School is committed to safeguarding the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
