What skills and experience we're looking for
The successful candidate will be appointed on their skills and experience, however, as important to me will be your approach, attitude, and beliefs. You can use our website (www.thomaskeble.gloucs.sch.uk) to find out more about what we do and why we do it. Choosing the school for the next stage of your career is an important one and, to that end, we welcome prospective applicants to visit before deciding to apply.
We are looking for someone who shares our values, is ambitious for all children, and will help to build and sustain our school culture. As a school, we can offer a supportive, dynamic, and professional environment where teachers can focus on inspiring their students and subject leads are empowered to deliver their subjects in a way that suits the pedagogy of their respective fields.
What the school offers its staff
As a school community, we work hard and go the extra mile together for our student body who, in return, are warm, welcoming, and well-motivated. You will be joining a community where teachers can teach and our students are eminently teachable. This means you can impart your passion for English without having to constantly assert your authority. We don’t grade lessons, or prescribe how to teach, and we are informed by the new and emerging evidence around learning and teaching, rather than the latest fad or government whim. As a small school, we can be agile and innovative, as we look to respond to the changing educational landscape.
Thomas Keble was chosen as one of the first 50 schools nationally to be rebuilt under the Schools Rebuilding Programme (SRP). We took occupancy in February 2025 and expect the whole project to be completed by Summer 2026. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to work in a fabulous environment.
