What skills and experience we're looking for

As we seek to develop our already outstanding school, we are looking for motivated, ambitious and highly skilled individuals who wish to enter teaching. We are offering the rare opportunity of a paid position at our school, where you will ‘learn to teach on the job’ in supportive and stimulating environments. In addition, you will have a weekly training day delivered by our outstanding and experienced practitioners at Debden Park High School.

Applicants must have:

  • a UK (or equivalent) subject-related degree (minimum 2:2) or subject related A-Level (C and above);

  • GCSE (or equivalent) in Mathematics and English at Grade C/4 or above;

  • the right to work in the UK.


What the school offers its staff

Debden Park High School is a heavily oversubscribed Academy that constantly achieves outstanding outcomes for its students. We lead a family of schools as part of the Kemnal Academies Trust, providing exceptional career progression and bespoke CPD experiences for our staff, which has led to our middle and senior leadership teams being composed of many teachers who began their career with us.

You will be training through the ‘School Direct’ system, which is an employment-based route into teaching for high quality graduates, leading to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and the option of

a PGCE qualification. You will be employed by the school and the training programme will also take place on the school premises. Trainees will work alongside highly qualified and inspiring teachers to provide a range of teaching and learning support. Once qualified, we also offer an ECT Programme, valuable mentoring opportunities and support to progress into a Leadership role and beyond.

Commitment to safeguarding

TKAT is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Offers of employment will be subject to the full Safer Recruitment process, including an enhanced disclosure and barring service check.
