We are seeking to appoint a Teacher of English to join our committed English Department. The successful candidate will ideally have prior experience in a similar, or related, role from September 2025.
Members of the English Department would have the opportunity to teach across the full range of ages and ability, delivering well-structured and engaging 50 minute lessons. The department is well resourced, with all colleagues having their own classrooms. Shared planning, with highly experienced colleagues, is available and encouraged.
Many teachers will also be involved in leading a Tutor Group; these are year group specific and each year group is led, and supported, by the Achievement Coordinator.
The Archbishop Lanfranc Academy opened in September 2014 and moved into its brand new whole-school rebuild in September 2017.
The Academy also benefits from an on-site nursery open to both staff and the general public which also has a grading of “Good” from Ofsted.
We are committed to high-quality, collaborative and relevant CPD for all members of staff to enable and support them to make the best possible progress in their role and in their future career development. As a growing school there are many opportunities for ‘in-house’ progression.
The Academy is located within a short walk of Therapia Lane Tram Stop, mid-way between East Croydon and Wimbledon Mainline Stations and underground connections, both of which are approximately 15 minutes by tram from the school.
