Job description

Overview

We are looking for a dynamic and engaging practitioner to join our established and successful English department. You will be actively engaged from the start in supporting our students through their journey to their GCSE and A-Level qualifications. Experience of, or the potential in, teaching A-Level would be an advantage but not a necessity; the balance between which key stages would be discussed and agreed at interview.

About the role

This role is suitable for experienced and new-to-profession teachers alike. The Academy is committed to equality and diversity and welcome applications from practitioners regardless of background or experience: it may be that you have just the qualities we are looking for to add to our thriving team!

Development and Collaboration

You will have full access to the Joint Professional Development support offered in house here at Harris Sutton; but there is also a great deal of collaborative working and sharing of good ideas and what works within secondary across the Harris Federation. The successful candidate will be joining a friendly and outward looking group where professional development and progression opportunities are second to none.

Wellbeing and Workload

Staff wellbeing and workload is high on the priority list at Harris Sutton. We have a number of initiatives to aid with this including a full 2-week October half term, half days at the end of each term and our recently launched flexible PPA periods (which teachers can choose to use at home or offsite).
