The Role
We are seeking an enthusiastic and dedicated Secondary Teacher with a specialism in English to join our team. The ability and willingness to teach across a range of subjects would be a real advantage.

• Ongoing training and professional development

• A chance to make a genuine difference in the lives of young people

About You

• A qualified teacher (QTS or equivalent)

• Specialism in English, with flexibility to teach other subjects as needed

• Patient, creative, and resilient, with a sense of humour and a positive outlook

• Passionate about inclusive education and meeting the needs of diverse learners

We encourage all interested applicants to visit our school and see first-hand what makes us unique.
