St George’s Church of England Foundation School is looking to appoint a 2 I/C of English.
If you would like to work for a school that provides a supportive and innovative environment, are an inspiring, creative and energetic English teacher who can motivate our pupils to achieve their full potential then we want to hear from you! In addition to English, if you have experience in teaching Drama/Performing Arts this would be desirable as we have an ambition to reintroduce this as an option at KS4 and potentially in the future at KS5.
We have a focus on wellbeing for staff and pupils and are constantly striving to keep a fair work/life balance.
* We have a 2 week October break rather than space our teacher training days across the year and have CPD sessions after school on a Monday.
* Staff are able to finish at the earlier time of 2.40 p.m. on Friday and pupils at KS3 & KS4 are dismissed at 2.30 p.m. every day allowing an hour 3 nights a week for staff to plan, mark and meet as a department.
* We hold a structured induction day providing further insight into St George’s vision and procedures/expectations along with a tour of the school and time in the department to further discuss the role.
* We are located in the beautiful coastal town of Broadstairs within the District of Thanet, we boast a central location with affordable housing.
Our English directorship will provide you with a rewarding environment in which you will thrive and deliver high quality teaching in a collaborative setting.
As 2 I/C of English you will:
* Plan and teach lessons and sequences of lessons across Key Stage 3, 4 and 5 within the context of the School’s plans, curriculum and schemes of work;
* Contribute to the development, implementation and evaluation of school’s policies, practices and procedures in such a way as to support the school’s vision and values;
* Assess, monitor, record and report on the learning needs, progress and achievements of assigned pupils.
* With specific responsibility for impact within the English department you will be expected to be data efficient, proactive with interventions, support staff with behaviour management and work closely with other leaders of the department to ensure pupils reach their full potential.
To be successful in this role you will have:
* A relevant Degree and/or teaching qualification;
* A commitment to fostering all aspects of the assigned subject across the curriculum;
* Good organisational skills and the ability to meet deadlines and targets.
