Are you passionate about inspiring young minds and shaping the future? Join us as an English Teacher and make a difference by delivering excellent teaching and fostering a love for English. Working alongside the Head of English, you will contribute to a challenging curriculum and support professional development within a strong, inclusive team. Together, we aim to achieve the best outcomes for all students, especially the most disadvantaged. If you value collaboration, high standards, and a supportive environment, we’d love to hear from you.
Join a high-performing, Catholic secondary school that prides itself on being safe, healthy, and inclusive where pupils are happy to learn and staff are happy to work.
Every day we live out our Catholic mission to Love, Learn, and Lead. We manage to be both inclusive and high achieving. What does this look like in practice for staff?
1. 100% of staff say they are valued, enjoy coming to work, and are proud to work here.
2. Staff attendance is high; we are fully staffed, and the number of long-serving staff shows that people like to stay with us.
3. You’re part of a great team, with strong CPD opportunities and a commitment to a work-life balance. Our lunchtime reading and research clubs for staff are very well attended.
4. We’re a welcoming place – you’ll even have a laugh as you do your job. Staff who have joined recently have said that it has reinvigorated their love of teaching and they want to stay in the profession.
5. We have a visible, proactive, and supportive SLT. They’re out before and after school and during every break and lunch. They walk the corridors, teach, and know the school, the children, and the staff well. They hold the line on standards and value excellent communication. Staff wellbeing is a priority – leaders’ doors are open, and they listen.
6. Many of our staff live in the local community and choose to send their children to us – we have a ‘family feel’.
7. We are inclusive, SEND-focused, trauma-informed, and we have high expectations and standards. We don’t give up on children. Our outcomes and attendance for vulnerable pupils are above national averages for SEND and disadvantaged groups, but we’re not complacent and we won’t stop until we have achieved equity for all.
8. Our pupils are respectful, kind, and committed – this is a place where staff can teach and young people can learn in a calm environment.
If you’ve fallen out of love with teaching or working in schools – we could well be where you rediscover your passion. If you’re new to the education professions, we’re the ideal place to develop your gifts and talents further. If you’re not sure, phone to speak with Ben Davis, Headteacher, for an honest chat before you decide or arrange a visit.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity. Apply now to be part of something very special.
