The role

We are looking to appoint a highly motivated, experienced, and innovative experienced Teacher of English to join an ambitious and successful English team.

Are you the person to stretch, challenge, support and inspire our students in and outside of the classroom? Do you share our ambition to inspire and engage students with your subject knowledge?

You will play an important role in passing on your subject knowledge through inspiring teaching to our students, ensuring that you can bring out the best in everyone.

We are looking for someone with a work ethic that focuses on student enjoyment of learning such that they make great progress and with a deep commitment to their own development through high quality CPD provided by the school and by United Learning.

In return we are offering a highly attractive salary, along with the benefits of being part of United Learning, where there are many opportunities to share good practice and collaborate with colleagues across every phase of education.

We welcome applications from everyone committed to this ethos and would particularly welcome applications from black and minority ethnic candidates, who are currently under-represented in the Group as a whole. We always appoint on merit. We are open to discussing flexible working options.
