What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic and inspirational teacher to join our outstanding English department. The successful candidate will join an innovative, forward thinking team of teachers, who are passionate about engaging and inspiring young people in their learning and committed to raising standards of attainment across the whole ability range. An essential part of this post will be the ability to teach English Literature and/or Language across the whole ability range, including A-Level. Applications are invited from both newly qualified and experienced professionals and there is an opportunity for an R&R allowance to be discussed.
If you are interested in joining Edgbarrow School and you have the skills and the qualities required for this post, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please note that all applications will be considered upon receipt, therefore an early reply is recommended. We reserve the right to close the advert early should the right candidate apply.
What the school offers its staff
Edgbarrow is located in the village of Crowthorne, Berkshire. It is a thriving, vibrant and high-achieving secondary school where students are polite, happy, well behaved and motivated. It was recently judged by Ofsted as outstanding.
Edgbarrow School believes in setting the highest standards in all areas of school life and we are looking for a purposeful and committed individual who wants to join and enhance our strong team. We offer an excellent induction programme, promotion prospects and a highly supportive working environment. The Teacher of English role would also qualify in the admissions process for your child to attend Edgbarrow if you live out of catchment. This would come into operation after 2 years of service.
Employment is with Corvus Learning Trust and not Bracknell Forest Council. The trust is very popular and for most posts a large number of applications are received - it is thus not possible to notify all applicants of the outcome. Please accept that if you have not heard within three weeks of the closing date then, unfortunately, your application has been unsuccessful - in which case we offer our best wishes for the future.
