We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and energetic Teacher of Economics and Business Studies to join our thriving and highly regarded Business Team.

The role will require you to teach Business Studies at Key Stage 4 and 5, and Economics at Key Stage 5.
This is an excellent opportunity to work with an exceptional team who have a well-structured curriculum, comprehensive resources and work collaboratively with the shared aim of creating the best learning opportunities for all. The team is highly professional, supportive of each other and place great importance on teamwork.

If you would like to join a forward-thinking, research-driven school and you have the skills and tenacity to really make a difference for young people, we would welcome your application.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and expect all staff to respect this commitment. A consideration of the person’s suitability to work alongside children is part of the selection process.
If invited for interview, you will be:
* asked to complete a self-declaration form answering questions in relation to any criminal record or other information that would make them unsuitable to work with children.
* subject to an online search. This is to help identify any incidents or issues that have happened, and are publicly available online, which we may wish to explore at interview.
If successful, you will be subject to
* an enhanced disclosure from the Disclosure and Barring Service.
* pre-employment checks which will include References, Health, Right to Work in UK, DBS and a Declaration that neither they nor anyone who lives in the same household is a disqualified person under the Childcare (Disqualification) Regulations 2009.
Current or previous employers will be contacted and information requested will include:
* disciplinary offences relating to children, including any for which the penalty is ‘time expired’.
