Do you possess high emotional intelligence that builds lasting professional relationships?
Are you a team player ready to tackle the educational challenges of the future?
If the answer to these questions is ‘yes’, then Gildredge House wants to hear from you.
We are looking to appoint an exceptional candidate to the position of
Teacher of English
for our all-through free school. Teachers in the early stage of their career would benefit from the wealth of experience and talent amongst the teachers in English, which is a strong department within the school.
ECTs are welcome to apply.
Our ‘Good’ Ofsted judgement (November 2024) is a strong foundation on which to build and develop the school. The challenge is to sustain and further improve through every aspect of Gildredge House as the school continues to develop.
As Teacher of English, you will join an outstanding team of inspirational teachers, where you will ensure that our students enjoy and achieve highly in their English lessons. You will be an English specialist in the Secondary phase, teaching Year 7 through to Year 11. This is an exciting time to join our successful English department, with a range of opportunities for professional development in our KS2 transition with Year 6, to inspiring our students to choose English at Sixth Form and University.
Within the English department, you will find a team who are dedicated to providing engaging, stimulating lessons to students of all abilities, and classrooms where rapport and relationships are given the highest priority. We plan with creativity and teach with enthusiasm, ensuring that every student reaches their full potential. We aim to help students develop resilience and confidence in the face of a challenging curriculum, not only to prepare them for demanding examinations but also to foster a lifelong love of reading – leaving them thinking about books, becoming an imaginative writer or an inspired philosopher.
