We are seeking to appoint an inspirational and dedicated part-time or full-time Teacher of PE. The successful candidate will join one of the school’s most effective and respected departments, working and collaborating with an exceptionally committed and talented team of practitioners.

In addition to an extremely exciting and popular Core PE curriculum, the school offers a wide range of KS4 and KS5 PE based courses for students to select from; these include Sports Leadership, BTEC L1/2 Sport, GCSE PE, BTEC L3 Sport and A Level PE. A large number of our students choose to undertake one or more of these qualifications during their KS4 and/or KS5 studies and the learning experiences these students have and the resulting outcomes they achieve are exceptional.

This is an excellent and exciting time to join our school and to be part of an enthusiastic, forward-thinking and supportive team. Applications are invited from well-qualified and passionate PE specialists for this opportunity to teach in our thriving Catholic community. We are looking for a committed and talented member of staff who can demonstrate equal passion for the subject and working with young students.
