What skills and experience we're looking for

We are looking to appoint an inspirational, conscientious, committed Geography teacher to join our successful Humanities Faculty. All of our teachers work hard, not only to ensure all pupils reach their academic potential, but also to foster an understanding of the value and opportunities their individual subject offers.

The successful candidate will become an integral part not only of the Geography team and Humanities Faculty, but of the whole school. The post will appeal to recently qualified or experienced teachers wishing to join a dynamic and supportive team committed to the pursuit of excellence in the teaching of Geography. The Humanities faculty has expanded substantially in recent years and Geography is a popular subject at both GCSE and A level.

If you are committed to excellence in teaching and learning, use innovative methods in the classroom and are able to disseminate your passion and ideas to others then this role is for you.
