Job overview
Full or Part Time Teacher of English
Permanent Contract
Start date: September 2025
Salary: Main Pay Scale/Upper Pay Scale (Suitable for ECTs)
Is there a job more important than helping a child find their voice? We don’t think so, and if you have a love of language and literature and a passion for reading we’d love to hear from you. If you’d love to work with a full team of specialists, who share your passion for the written and spoken word, then you’ve just found the job for you.
You will join a large but close knit team that are achieving special things, with GCSE results some of the strongest nationally (91% 4-9 summer 2024), as well as exemplary A-Level facilities and students who demonstrate a true love of learning and show that in their results and University applications. Our recent Ofsted inspection highlighted the exemplary practice in the English department – so if this is a team you can be part of we’d love you to come and join our high performing team.
Are you able to:
- Inspire and innovate?
- Nurture and develop (yourself as well as others)?
- Commit to, and raise further, high achievement and motivation?
- Optimise English learning for all?
Then come and see us. We are looking for potential as much as experience so we welcome applications from ITTs. Here’s just a few reasons why you’d be mad not to:
· Our greatest strength is our people and we work hard to make sure you know that. Wellbeing is central to all we do – we have dedicated wellbeing days for staff, early finishes for you to take the time you need, and this year we are trialling a two-week autumn break in the busiest of times
· Our students are exceptional – bright, inquisitive, respectful and diligent and they provide an environment where you can teach and realise your potential, as well as theirs
· Not to mention the Leadership breakfast we cook you now and again, just to say thank you, the end of term events, Easter Eggs, advent calendars, or summer BBQ. Staff wellbeing is at our core and we want you to know that we do what we do because of you
· Planning your lessons is crucial and it’s always easier when we collaborate – we’ve put in place hours of co-planning so that you can share best practice and resources and not have to sit at home doing it on your own.
In addition, we will offer:
- A culture of bespoke professional development from our own Leadership Academy
- The opportunity to make a difference
- Staff iPads
- Benefit schemes
- The benefit of being part of a multi-academy trust offering collaboration, support of experienced colleagues across our schools and greater opportunities for career progression
