What skills and experience we're looking for

To support our growing and expanding school, we are seeking applications from a dedicated, hardworking, highly skilled and knowledgeable teacher to join our Personal Development department, within a highly successful, happy, well-resourced, exceptional non-selective 11-18 school. The option to also teach a secondary subject will be considered.

OFSTED 2022: “Leaders have designed a comprehensive programme to develop pupils’ understanding of the world around them. Pupils learn how to stay safe and look after their well-being in personal development lessons, tutor time and assemblies. For example, pupils can confidently explain about mobile phone safety and alcohol misuse. They understand how to recognise extremist views. The programme is kept under constant review and often adapted to respond to issues that arise locally or nationally.”

What the school offers its staff

We work meticulously to secure a culture of unapologetically high expectations that are underpinned by our collective, uncompromising belief and ambition for our students, and for the experienced, loyal, highly skilled, and highly effective team of staff that teach them, allowing teachers to teach and students to learn in a school where leadership, management, behaviour, and welfare are all judged as outstanding. MARK Education Trust is committed to the development of both its staff and students.

Commitment to safeguarding

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is subject to Enhanced DBS clearance and suitable references.
