We require a teacher who can build excellent relationships with students and staff. We are also seeking to appoint somebody with a good sense of humour and who enjoys working in a team.

A strong commitment to the extra-curricular life of the school is essential.
Subject knowledge is important, as is an up-to-date knowledge of the latest strategies in ICT /Business. The successful candidate will thoroughly enjoy teaching their subject.

Uptake in these subjects is very strong at this particular Secondary School. Also, the school has recently been inspected by Ofsted under the New Framework. The school has retained its good judgement and that included strong praise for the Quality of Education.
The staff body is very experienced and they have a highly committed team who always ‘go the extra mile’ for the school and community. All staff are expected to contribute to the development of new resources and to work collaboratively with others. They also offer excellent professional development opportunities and a wide range of facilities.
Standards of behaviour are excellent. They achieve this because of a very strong team work ethic in pastoral management, but also they do not tolerate poor choices without proportionate consequences. As a new member of staff, you will find the school to be an extremely welcoming environment to teach in.
