OFSTED RATED OUTSTANDING
At Chesterton, our English faculty’s mission is to ensure all students leave school with a secure understanding of the English literary canon; the ability to communicate confidently via written and spoken word alike; a grasp of how to respond both critically and personally to a wide range of texts, and above all having acquired a passion for reading that will extend well beyond their school years.
If your vision for teaching English is aligned with ours, please read on for details of an exciting opportunity to join our dynamic team…
We require an enthusiastic, well-qualified and highly motivated teacher of English to join our successful faculty who facilitate consistently outstanding results for all our students. The English faculty’s working practice is highly collaborative, which leads to the production of excellent centralised resources for colleagues to use as a basis for their class teaching materials.
This is an exciting time to join the school following the launch of our bespoke, academic sixth form in September 2024. We offer both English Literature and English Language A-Level courses and continue to attract dedicated and engaged sixth form students to our department offer.
Chesterton is committed to ensuring it is a consistently supportive and positive school to work in, and is part of an innovative Trust which champions bespoke CPD and excellent career development opportunities for all our staff.
The post provides an excellent opportunity for an ECT or experienced teacher.
