What we are looking for:
Would you like to be part of an exciting journey by joining a newly opened and growing school, based at our brand-new site with outstanding facilities off Thorpeville, from September 2025? Would you like to work in professional partnership with a school (NSB) ranked as the top state comprehensive school in the East Midlands by the Sunday Times for 2022 and 2024, based on GCSE and A Level results?
The NSB Trust is looking for a Head of English to join our growing, co-educational, 11-16 academy, Northampton School. We are seeking applicants who share in our ambitious, supportive and aspirational culture and can help to deliver our curriculum to the highest standards whilst also embracing the ethos, values and visions of The Trust. You will work closely with the Deputy Headteacher for Quality of Education to ensure consistent levels of provision across the school.
You will also join part of an incredible team of teachers who are passionate about providing young people with the opportunity to grow and thrive in this growing community. We are already immensely proud of our extracurricular programme of activities, and it is essential that the successful applicant can contribute to drive this provision forward at Northampton School.
We offer a truly exciting range of CPD opportunities for all teachers and leaders across the school and are wholly committed to investing in the development of our staff in The NSB Trust.
The TLR allowance will increase to a level of 1b when our first cohort of students move into Year 10 and start their GCSEs in September 2026.
