Summary
The Post:
We are seeking a caring, committed, and well-qualified, part-time (0.5 FTE) Teacher of Physical Education to join our dedicated and experienced PE Department, on a fixed term basis until 31st August 2025, to cover maternity leave within the department. The successful candidate will teach across the year groups in the Senior School. The ability to teach A Level would be an advantage.
Applications from ECTs are welcome.
The Physical Education Department:
Our Physical Education Department is a supportive, challenging and rewarding environment, committed to the provision of high-quality school sport for all pupils.
There are currently five teachers of Physical Education including the Head of PE, as well as other colleagues who support co-curricular activities.
The Physical Education Department has an outstanding record for its extra-curricular performance and provision, rivalling local selective and ISA North private schools. The emphasis here at Abbey Gate College is on how pupils’ extra-curricular involvement in sport contributes to their overall physical and mental wellbeing and achievement, enabling individual and team excellence, as well as proving enjoyment and developing collective effort. We offer a balanced and varied programme to suit all abilities.
Fixtures are played across a variety of sports. Saturday morning fixtures in the Autumn and Spring terms are for football, rugby, netball and hockey, against local opposition at a competitive level.
The Department benefits from a variety of superb facilities, enhanced by our wonderful location on a 20-acre site in the middle of beautiful countryside. Our Sports Hall consists of four badminton courts, which adapt to indoor netball / basketball courts. Our newly built teaching pavilion includes a teaching area and a small Technogym facility within. We also have a new all-weather sand-based hockey pitch, that also allows delivery of a number of other sports. Our three grass football pitches on the lower-level field are also used as a rugby pitch and a 400m athletic track during the summer months.

Salary:
£15,525 - £24,076 for 0.5 FTE (based on a full-time equivalent of £31,050 - £48,153 per annum).
The salary for this position will depend upon the qualifications and relevant experience of the successful candidate.
Applications from ECTs are welcome.
Abbey Gate College contributes towards a generous Private Defined Contribution Pension Scheme with an employer’s contribution of 18% and an employee’s contribution of 6% (with the option for individuals to contribute a higher percentage, should they wish to do so).
Teachers also benefit from a generous non-contact allocation, smaller class sizes, a free-of-charge lunch each day, a wellbeing support programme and gym facilities.
Safeguarding & Child Protection:
Abbey Gate College is committed, as a priority, to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
Applicants will, therefore, be subject to stringent vetting and induction processes, including an enhanced DBS disclosure and online checks. References for shortlisted candidates will be requested prior to interview; please inform your referees.
