(0.6-0.7 approx) - Short-term cover
The school seeks to appoint a well-qualified, enthusiastic and engaging individual to join the Classics department and deliver effective teaching and learning from Year 8 upwards. The department is a thriving one and seeks to deliver a positive experience of the ancient world to all students. This is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy working in a stimulating professional environment.
The ability to teach A-level Classical civilisation is a requirement of this post, and it would be an advantage to be able to teach Classical Greek GCSE, though this would not be essential. The successful candidate will be a positive and dynamic individual who is able to engage, motivate and inspire students of all ages.
