As a 13-18 school in south east Northumberland with good standards of teaching and behaviour and a strong commitment to improvement, we believe passionately that every student should be enabled to succeed in all aspects of school life. Building on our recent ‘Good’ rating by Ofsted, we continue to strive for further improvements.
This post would be suitable for an NQT or someone wishing to gain further experience.
We require an enthusiastic English practitioner to focus on delivery throughout Years 9-13 and make a positive contribution to results at both GCSE English Language and English Literature and A Level English Literature. With a strong sense of purpose and drive to improve student attainment and progress, you will join a small but committed team and will be supported to further develop your career and professional practice.
