Job overview

Teacher of English | January 2025

St Paul’s Way Trust is an outstanding ‘Through School’ with a track record of innovation. Drawing extensively on academic research, the school provides a unique curriculum experience centred on our vision of a “transformational education for all.”

 

We are seeking to appoint an outstanding and knowledgeable Teacher of English. The post would be suitable for both an ECT and a more experienced teacher who would like to develop their skills and expertise in an ambitious, well-resourced and highly successful English Faculty. Experience in teaching GCSE and/or A Level would be particularly desirable.

 

This is an excellent career opportunity for a colleague who is passionate about the entitlement of young people to a knowledge-rich English curriculum, built around challenging, high-quality literature – aligning with the work of practitioners such as Christine Counsell and David Didau. You will be joining an incredibly hard-working and passionate team and will work with dynamic and supportive management. The English faculty is also a high performing team; in August 2023, the faculty celebrated 100% A*-C at A level and 91% Grade 4+ at GCSE level. The team works collaboratively to continue to raise attainment but also provide the powerful knowledge our students need to be effective scholars of the subject discipline, fostering a love of language and literature.

We are looking for an individual who:

  • Has a calm, professional and approachable manner to support the raising of attainment of all students they teach
  • Will contribute to an inspiring, innovative and caring team
  • Is passionate about students’ entitlement to powerful knowledge within the subject discipline
  • Is proactive and has exceptional classroom skills

We will offer:

  • Enthusiastic, courteous and considerate students who behave well and have good attitudes to learning
  • An exceptional, well-resourced learning environment
  • A supportive and friendly team of staff
