This is a fantastic opportunity to join a friendly, experienced and motivated department within a popular High School. You will be working with a team who are dedicated, passionate and determined to deliver high standards to all of its learners.

The English team includes a wide range of experience and teaching styles; each member is ‘outstanding’ in their own individual way. We are united by a passion for our subject, the ability to inspire across the ability and age range and, very importantly, a sense of humour. As Department leader, I frequently visit and observe the learning within my department. I expect to see pupils who discuss, argue and debate. I expect to see pupils excited, involved, engaged and challenged - unafraid of taking risks. I expect pupils to be engrossed and positively active. I expect to see pupils succeeding independently or in groups. Within our department, we aim to inspire pupils to achieve their true potential and instil within them, a powerful sense of self-belief. The successful candidate will therefore need to be dynamic, determined and show firmness of purpose.
