Job overview
We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated and enthusiastic teacher of RE to join this key department in our school. As a Catholic school, RE is a core subject and all students in the school continue their studies in this area throughout the school. Applications from those who share the Catholic faith, have no faith or are of any other faith are all welcome although the successful candidate will need to be confident in teaching within the context of a Catholic school curriculum. The CCRS (Catholic Certificate of Religious Studies) is therefore advantageous but not essential. Applications from ECTs and experienced colleagues are welcome. The ideal candidate should be passionate about their subject, be committed to raising standards by inspiring and motivating pupils and should be qualified to teach RE across the age range of the school.
Our school is committed to our mission as a Catholic community and seeks to help all our young people achieve their potential both academically and personally. We can offer a positive environment where you will be encouraged to progress further in your career should you wish, supported by a team of staff who are hardworking and dedicated to the school.
We will review applications as they are received so an early application is advised and we reserve the right to close the advert early if an applicant is appointed before the closing date.
For more details of the school and how to apply please see our website: https://www.st-benedicts.suffolk.sch.uk/jobapplicationforms or contact Stef Buchan- Head's PA.
St Benedict's is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The post is subject to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) clearance check. The school reserves the right to research shortlisted candidates on social media platforms and the internet, and the recruitment panel may take this information into consideration during the recruitment process.
