Teacher of English

Our successful, established English faculty is looking for a new team member with the passion and enthusiasm to make a positive impact on the young people at our school. At the heart of our curriculum is the exploration of the human condition, exploring themes of identity, relationships, and conflict across the key stages. We choose our texts carefully to reflect the breadth of literature and experiences with which we want our students to engage. We are reflective, supportive, and collaborative in our approach, using research to underpin our teaching and learning practices, and being mindful of staff workload in decisions particularly around shared planning and marking expectations. We have established links with local universities, and there are opportunities every year for staff to mentor ITT students who can learn from our knowledgeable and supportive team.

This role would be ideal for a Qualified Teacher or an Unqualified Teacher that has the passion and enthusiasm to make a positive impact on the young people at our school.

At Moseley, you can look forward to being part of a dynamic team who are responsive to the needs of the students, with Entry Level being delivered from Year 9, to ensure that targeted students get the support in accessing GCSE. At A-level, we have a varied and engaging choice of texts and these are adapted to the needs and interests of each cohort.

A focus on literacy is central to our school curriculum, with tutor time reading well-established in the school. As an English teacher, you will be part of the team supporting this drive, closely collaborating with our librarian, to ensure all students make the most of our wonderful school library, as well as running competitions and other activities for students in all year groups.

Our perfect teaching candidate will:

· Be a consistently good to outstanding practitioner.

· Be committed to exceptional standards of teaching and learning.

· Be able to motivate, challenge and inspire students to achieve their best.

· Be able to establish and develop outstanding relationships with students and staff.

· Help us to build on already good English results.

· Contribute to our core vision and values.
