What skills and experience we're looking for

The Governors of this very successful Catholic High School wish to appoint a dynamic and inspirational Teacher of English to join our strong and dedicated English Department.

This role will offer the successful candidate exciting challenges that will be both rewarding and fulfilling, and will support you to achieve your own personal career goals and aspirations. Governors would be delighted to offer a TLR 3.5 (£3,169) for up to three years, for an appropriately experienced and exceptional candidate.

Governors hope to appoint someone who will:

-Love and care for our children as much as they would their own;

-Be, or have the potential to be, in every sense a great teacher;

-Be enthusiastic, resourceful and keen to ensure that the highest possible standards of pupil achievement, personal development and well-being are achieved;

-Have high expectations of both themselves and those they work with;

-Be able to lead and inspire colleagues to continuously improve;

-Always be willing to go the extra mile for our children.

Governors would ideally want to appoint someone to take up their new role in the Summer Term but, for the right candidate, would be willing to consider a September 2024 start.

What the school offers its staff

Cardinal Allen is a great place to work and an excellent community to belong to. We receive tremendous support from our parent body and our committed group of Governors. Our pupils actively engage in all aspects of school life, and there is a culture of mutual support and openness.

Cardinal Allen is a forward looking, oversubscribed, ‘outstanding Catholic school’, evaluated by Ofsted just last year as a ‘good school’. Inspectors said, ‘Pupils are happy to attend this kind and welcoming school. Pupils achieve well. This is because leaders set high expectations for all pupils’. We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and we expect all staff to share this commitment.

Further details about the role

We are an ambitious school and want the very best for the youngsters in our care. First and foremost we are looking for a great Teacher of English, or someone with the potential to become one; for that reason, we welcome applications from ECTs and more experienced candidates. For a colleague new to teaching, we have a perfect track record of supporting newly qualified teachers through their NQT / ECT framework. Governors would very much welcome your application. For a more experienced colleague, this position offers a fantastic opportunity for someone who is already a great classroom teacher to take on some leadership responsibility.

Our children deserve the best, and so Governors would be delighted to offer a temporary TLR, for up to three years, to an exceptional candidate with appropriate experience and track record. If you feel that your application falls into this category, Governors will be happy to discuss this at interview, along with what your additional responsibility might include.

Commitment to safeguarding

Our organisation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults. We expect all staff, volunteers and trustees to share this commitment.
