What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking for an enthusiastic and innovative teacher of English, with strong interpersonal skills and a commitment to achieving high standards within a thriving department. The successful candidate will have a strong academic background and be an excellent classroom practitioner who is capable of inspiring and motivating students.

All students study English Language and Literature at GCSE and the Department progress and attainment results are excellent across all groups. We offer A level courses in both English Literature and English Language. A number of students apply to Oxbridge each year to study English. The English team comprises 14 specialist teachers with a strong ethos of excellent teaching and learning. The Department is also committed to providing valuable enrichment and extra-curricular activities for students, and regularly runs theatre trips, study conferences, Shakespeare performance opportunities, and supports student entries to national creative writing competitions, in addition to hosting the annual Poetry and Music performance event.

What the school offers its staff

We are committed to supporting staff wellbeing in a variety of ways. The good working relationships within the staff body, and between staff and students is why many colleagues have chosen to stay with us for the long term. We are also strong in supporting staff career development and colleagues are successful in securing promotions at all levels. We support colleagues in pursuing NPQs and offer a secondment programme onto the Senior Leadership Team for middle leaders.

Although we achieve excellent results year on year and are heavily over-subscribed, we are not complacent. We know there is always more to do, and we work together to continuously reflect upon our successes and areas for development. We are keen to hear the voices of all our stakeholders.
