We are seeking to appoint an outstanding teacher to join the English faculty to deliver high quality lessons across the Key Stages. If you are an excellent classroom practitioner, who is flexible, dedicated and passionate about delivering exceptional learning experiences, then we want to hear from you.

The English faculty is a friendly and innovative team and the successful candidates will have the capacity to be both an outstanding English teacher and an enthusiastic and dynamic team member. Our faculty enjoys excellent facilities and provides its staff with a supportive, forward thinking environment with plenty of opportunities for professional development. These range from our extensive ECT programme through to leadership progression opportunities within Paignton and across the Trust.

The successful candidate will be confident teaching English from Key Stage 3 to GCSE (Language & Literature) and have a high level of subject expertise. They will work alongside other English staff to plan, develop and deliver an engaging curriculum that achieves the best possible outcomes for all students
