Teacher of English

Are you a dedicated and highly effective educator committed to raising the achievement of all students within your subject area? Join us as a Teacher, where you will be instrumental in delivering high-quality learning, utilising a range of teaching and learning strategies to ensure student success. This position requires a professional who is aware of strategies for improving learning, understands curriculum developments, and is creative in finding solutions to enhance student performance.

As a new teacher you will be supported by members of the English department in your school, as well as by our Community Subject TSLs and SSIPs - our team of English experts who work across schools, in partnership with other English colleagues, building capacity, discussing and determining strategy, planning, and also coaching and supporting teachers. We are deeply committed to supporting and bringing out the best in each other, resulting in extensive CPD and personal development opportunities ensuring colleagues feel purposeful and valued. We want our teachers to thrive as much as our students. We are clear what outstanding teaching looks like in our classrooms but we want our teachers to bring their own flair and personality to their role, creating warm and lively classrooms where the learning needs of all students are met and their full potential is achieved. As English teachers we pride ourselves on our ability to build excellent relationships with our students. This role is a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of young people, working alongside a group of like-minded professionals who are passionate about fostering a love of reading and achieving outstanding results.
