Teacher

About The Role

Are you an experienced, outstanding teacher looking for your next challenge?

Do you have a passion for working with vulnerable children and want to make a real difference to children’s lives? If the answer to these questions is yes, then why not join us?

In Compass Schools, we believe all teachers are, primarily teachers of children, before being teachers of subjects. Central to this role is knowing the child, building professional, nurturing and positive relationships and motivating students.

Despite being a secondary provision, we require a teacher who is versatile and can teach across a range of curriculum subjects from primary to GCSE. Accordingly, this role will suit a primary or secondary trained teacher.

Additional responsibilities include deputising for the Head teacher, when she is off the premises.

Because we are part of a much larger organisation, there are many opportunities for career progression.
