Job description

South West/ contract / £31,650 - 49,084 per year

Role: Female PE Teacher
Location: Bristol
Start Date: ASAP
Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience

• Are you a passionate PE teacher who thrives on motivating young women to reach their full potential — on and off the sports field?
• Do you believe in the power of sport to build confidence, resilience, and lifelong skills?
• Are you ready to join a school where both students and staff truly flourish?

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.

About the School

We’re proud to be recruiting for one of Bristol’s most exceptional secondary schools — a place known for its outstanding behaviour, strong leadership, and supportive culture. Staff here feel valued, respected, and part of a real team, while students benefit from a setting that balances academic excellence with personal growth.

The PE department is already thriving, and now the school is looking to welcome a dynamic Female PE Teacher from September 2025. This is a full-time role until the end of the academic year, with the exciting possibility of becoming permanent for the right candidate.

The Role

As a Female PE Teacher, you’ll be a role model as much as an educator — inspiring girls across Key Stages 3 and 4 to embrace sport, enjoy physical activity, and grow in confidence. With excellent facilities and a vibrant extracurricular programme, you’ll have every opportunity to bring your enthusiasm to life, whether in the classroom, on the field, or leading after-school clubs.

Key Responsibilities:

• Plan and deliver engaging, inclusive, and high-energy PE lessons
• Promote teamwork, resilience, and healthy lifestyles
• Adapt lessons to support and challenge students of all abilities
• Lead and inspire through extracurricular clubs and sporting events
• Create a safe, supportive, and motivating learning environment

What We’re Looking For

• QTS (or equivalent teaching qualification)
• Specialism or experience in teaching PE to female students (preferred)
• A genuine passion for sport, fitness, and empowering young women
• Strong leadership, communication, and motivational skills
• A commitment to bringing out the very best in every student

What’s in It for You

• A dedicated consultant available 24/7
• Guaranteed Payment Scheme (T&Cs apply)
• Access to CPD and professional development via our My-Progression channel
• Competitive pay rates

This is more than just a teaching role — it’s your chance to make a lasting impact in an inspiring school where students are eager, motivated, and ready to succeed.
