We are seeking a passionate and dedicated Sports Coach to join our Physical Education Department, which is committed to developing pupils who strive for sporting excellence while nurturing a genuine interest and enjoyment of physical exercise and sport, whether in a recreational or competitive context. Our major sports include Rugby, Association Football, Netball, and Cricket.

It is essential that the candidate is a self-starter, motivated, and adaptable, playing an active role within the department despite working only one day a week.
