Job overview
This is an exciting opportunity for a highly motivated teacher to positively impact upon our youngsters and further improve this successful department. The ability to teach Geography is preferred, but not essential.
The successful candidate will have excellent subject knowledge and be able to motivate students through inspirational teaching. The ability to teach A-Level is desirable, but not essential. Impact and ambition is valued as highly as experience. We pride ourselves on our support, training and cross trust opportunities. Indeed, two of our Headteachers started as newly qualified teachers within the trust.
We are a GOOD school. Our Ofsted in May 2023 highlighted our many Good and Outstanding features.
We promise to offer you both a stimulating and highly rewarding experience in return for your motivational skills and good practice. Opportunities don’t arise very often to work in a vibrant school like Park Hall and we are delighted to be offering the chance for someone to join the team.
In return we can offer you:
- A positive and innovative learning culture supported by a dynamic Humanities department, staffed by specialist teachers
- A collaborative and supportive attitude amongst staff which promotes a sense of teamwork and unity
- A Senior Leadership team who is committed to promoting the best environment and outcomes for staff and students
- Teacher Pension and a Cycle to Work scheme
