Summary

What skills and experience we're looking for

Open to both experienced and Early Career Teachers, this is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is passionate about teaching, and shares the ambition, aspirations and values of the school.

Up Holland High School seeks an enthusiastic, high quality teacher of Geography with the ability to deliver effective teaching and learning at Key Stages 3 and 4. You will need to be a practitioner who has the ability to inspire, engage and motivate students. You will also need to have excellent communication skills, be ambitious and be a strong team player and above all else, you will need to be Dedicated to Excellence in all that you do.

What the school offers its staff

Up Holland High School is a happy and harmonious place to be where students are highly-motivated and have the opportunity to be inspired and succeed. We were recognised in May 2023 by Ofsted as ‘Good’ in all areas of school, with the capacity to improve still further. We believe that our strong collaboration with students, staff, parent/carers and governors continues to contribute towards the success of the school. This is the third successive ‘Good’ judgment the school has secured. The school aspires to move from ‘Good’ to ‘Great’ and we are seeking a professional that shares that level of ambition, a professional that can model our Dedication to Excellence in all that they do.

If appointed you can expect full-support and continuing professional development, as we promote a model of leadership at all levels and a bespoke and tailored CPD programme. We offer a professionally stimulating working environment where teachers have the opportunity to progress and most critically to positively impact on the lives of our students.

Commitment to safeguarding

Up Holland High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Successful applicants will need to undertake a DBS enhanced clearance, including checks with past employers. Please note that in line with Keeping Children Safe in Education online searches will be carried out as part of our due diligence on shortlisted candidates.
