Full Job Description

"Love truth, seek knowledge, not for themselves but for the end they bring to you which is God." - Mary Ward

Teaching in RE is inclusive in approach and the department nurtures principally an academic, as well as a devotional, response to the study of religion. We try to create a climate within which pupils feel it is normal to be spiritual and moral, and within which they can feel sufficiently secure to explore the relevance of religion in their own lives and the lives of others.

The department aims to foster an enthusiasm for the study of Religion leading to academic excellence, a high quality of moral debate, critical thinking about religious belief and practice and opportunities for personal reflection on the meaning of religious truth and spirituality.

If you can be an outstanding role model and inspire our pupils to realise their full potential, it's time we talked. If you have any questions, please contact the HR Team by email: hr@stmaryscambridge.co.uk or call: .
