What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and committed full-time Teacher of Geography to start next academic year. Part-time applications will be considered.

The large and successful Humanities faculty consists of Religious Studies, Geography and History. The faculty has 10 full time members of staff and 1 part time staff. The high quality of teaching in the Humanities faculty is a strength and significant numbers of students opt to do Humanities at Key Stage 4.

The Faculty requires an enthusiastic, committed teacher of Geography who is able to teach to GCSE level and have the flexibility to teach any one of the these Humanities subjects at Key Stage 3.

The Earls High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. We will carry out pre-appointment checks including DBS and will disqualify any applicant where we consider the outcomes to be unsatisfactory.
