What skills and experience we're looking for
We are looking to recruit a teacher of English who shows genuine passion and enthusiasm for the subject. At KS3 we have developed a broad and balanced curriculum which not only prepares students for the demands of GCSE but also develops a love of literature and intellectual enquiry. At KS4 and KS5, students study AQA English Literature and English Language. The successful candidate will ideally be experienced in teaching up to A-level; however, this post is also suitable for new entrants to the profession. Please see our website for details of our curriculum.
What the school offers its staff
If you have a passion for excellence and share our vision, we can offer you the opportunity to be part of a successful and progressive Trust, which is committed to ensuring learning is at the heart of all we do. As a part of the John Taylor Teaching School Hub and working with The Staffordshire Research School at John Taylor we will focus on your development, whatever stage you are at in your career. As a research informed school with a coaching for excellence model, we want you to succeed and thrive too.
Further details about the role
Additionally, we are advertising for a Progress Leader and a Lead Teacher for Thrive (TLR 2.5 - £5,643). These roles may be offered in conjunction with this position for the right candidate.
