About the Role
As a teacher at our sixth form college, you will play a key role in delivering engaging and challenging lessons that inspire academic excellence and independent thinking.

What we are looking for
Sir John Deane's seeks to appoint an enthusiastic teacher to contribute to the work of this thriving department.
We welcome applications from both early career teachers and teachers with experience.

The successful candidate should have the ability to teach across A Level English Literature and A Level English Language programmes. A full ECT programme is offered at the College in the same way as schools, this means you will be fully qualified to advance your future career.
The person appointed must be willing to:
- bring impactful and evidence-informed approaches to their teaching;
- work as a member of a team, sharing ideas and resources;
- develop relationships with students based upon equality, respect, joy and high aspirations
We are proud that the Sir John Deane’s name has enhanced the career of many colleagues and, together with the professional development we provide, has allowed them to progress into middle and senior management positions. As part of the Sir John Brunner Foundation Multi-Academy Trust, over time, the College will be able to provide professional opportunities in good and outstanding local high schools to help you further develop your career.
