What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking for a dedicated and passionate Teacher of English to join our team!
Our Academy opened in September 2013 with 120 students in Year 7 and has grown year on year with our Sixth Form opening in September 2018 and our founding cohort completing prestigious and exciting university courses last September.
Through love, nurture and a rigorous academic focus, our vision is to support every child and help them to achieve their full potential, becoming model citizens and future leaders. All students are welcome with us, regardless of starting point, need or complexity. We are totally inclusive and believe that all students here will ‘Climb the STAIRS to Greatness’ and reach our two end goals of getting their dream job and becoming a model citizen. We are unapologetically ambitious for all of our students. We put in place support and stilts to help every student meet our high expectations rather than ever lowering the bar.
What the school offers its staff
We are incredibly proud of everything we have achieved in the last eight years: our dedicated, compassionate and hardworking staff team; our great outcomes and exciting destinations and most of all, the kind, well-rounded young people leaving us who go on to thrive in purposeful and challenging further education.
This is an exciting time to be joining the well-established and successful English department. Over the last three years, the English department have developed a strong shared pedagogy – teachers are highly responsive to student learning and use turn and talk and precise writing structures to build student confidence. English lessons at South Bank are precise and joyful. This hard work and rigour have been validated in some excellent outcomes: last year, the English Progress 8 was 1.5, ranking us as 12th in the whole country for English results. We are looking for the right person to join a brilliant team to take the Faculty from strength to strength.
