Applications are invited from suitably qualified, experienced, and enthusiastic teachers to teach Geography at Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 and to assist the Subject Leader in leading this key department.

* Reduced workload
* Behaviour for learning that empowers teachers to teach and students to learn
* A range of imaginative approaches to ensure staff wellbeing
* Free, onsite parking
* Subsidised eye care for extended VDU users
* A Cycle to Work Scheme
* Free lunch for duty staff
* An Employee Assistance Programme, providing practical and emotional support
* An Employee Benefits Scheme, offering discounts on everyday essentials
Pastoral responsibilities will include form tutor duties such as registration, monitoring progress and behaviour, checking uniform and student organisers, and reporting and liaising with other staff as necessary.
Please note our clear expectations regarding personal and professional conduct of staff and the safeguarding of students:
1. To have total regard for the need to safeguard students’ well-being, in accordance with statutory provisions.
2. To have proper and professional regard for the ethos, policies, and practices of the School, and maintain high standards in their own attendance and punctuality.
3. To have an understanding of, and always act within, the statutory frameworks which set out their professional duties and responsibilities.
