Teacher of Geography (maternity cover) job summary
We are seeking to appoint a talented and dedicated person to join our team. The successful candidate will join our Humanities faculty to teach Geography to cover a maternity leave.
Geography is a thriving subject at Fitzharrys, popular at GCSE and A Level. Students enjoy trips from Year 7 onwards, in the local area and further afield. The successful candidate may have the opportunity to teach A Level Geography. Students study a carefully planned curriculum that builds key skills and knowledge, whilst also developing an understanding of key geographical issues.
Our ethos of aspiration, opportunity and integrity are at the heart of Fitzharrys’ sustained success. We are a good school (Ofsted, April 2023) with strong results that improve year on year. Ofsted praised our “warm and welcoming culture with a shared drive for continual improvement”. This is a very special place, and we are looking for the right candidate who is excited at the prospect of joining us and taking such a key role in our continued success.
All Fitzharrys staff benefit from our induction programme and our comprehensive CPD programme as part of a school community committed to getting the best from everyone. Through our focus on high quality teaching and learning, and excellent behaviour, our school continues to grow and develop.
We are proud of our students, and in turn they are proud to be part of the Fitzharrys community. Parents are supportive of the work of the school, recognising our high aspirations for every student who attends; they are both challenged to achieve highly, and supported in doing so.
This is an exciting time to join us in our continued development. If you want to be part of a school with strong working relationships at the heart of every interaction, a committed and caring staff, and a culture of working to get the very best from every child, then we look forward to meeting you.
