What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint a full time Teacher of Girls PE from September 2024 for maternity cover. A qualification in trampolining is desirable.

The PE department is a successful, forward-thinking department committed to excellence and the raising of achievement for all students. The team consists of six members of staff with several of the PE staff also holding pastoral roles.

Sporting facilities within school are of a good standard, with school recently securing funding to replace its Astro-turf and flood lighting. In addition, school have three gyms, a cricket pitch and pavilion, tennis court, football field and use of a gymnasium that is also regularly hired out to an external gymnastics company.

Subjects taught in Key Stage 3 PE include: fitness, trampolining, handball, gymnastics, basketball, volley-ball, tennis, rugby, cricket, rag-rugby, netball. All students take core PE during key stage 3 and at key stage 4 can choose from BTEC Sport or GCSE PE.

What the school offers its staff

As a school we are extremely proud of our badge, you will see it everywhere around the school. We are proud because it sums everything that we believe in. The motto on the badge says ‘Ut Fili Lucis Fiatis’ and it means ‘to become children of the light’, and that is the reason we exist as a school. We believe that every young person who walks through our doors has enormous potential. Our staff work hard to help students to reach their best and become enlightened, or as our motto says, become children of the light.

Everyone at The Earls High School supports students to make as much academic progress as possible so that they are equipped for the next stage of their education or career. We believe that it is our duty to help them develop character too, so that they can communicate effectively, have the resilience to carry on when things get difficult, work effectively as member of a team and develop their leadership skills. We want students who leave us to be kind, compassionate and caring individuals; people who will support and help their neighbours and make a significant positive contribution to Halesowen or whatever community they choose to live in.

If we develop these three qualities in the young people who choose to come to our school, we can feel content that we have done our job well.
