• Develop students’ analytical and communication skills

  
  

• Use assessment effectively to secure strong progress

  
  

• Contribute positively to a collaborative and reflective department

  
  

  This role would suit experienced teachers as well as Early Career Teachers. Support is carefully tailored, with a structured induction and mentoring programme for ECTs and personalised development pathways for more experienced colleagues.

  Person Specification

  The successful candidate will:

  • Hold Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)

    
    

  • Demonstrate strong subject knowledge in English Language and/or Literature

    
    

  • Have high expectations for achievement and behaviour

    
    

  • Build positive and consistent relationships with students

    
    

  • Be reflective and committed to ongoing professional development

    
    

  • Have the right to work in the UK

    
    The School Offers

    • Strong Progress 8 outcomes

      
      

    • Positive GCSE English results

      
      

    • Successful and growing Sixth Form provision

      
      

    • Well-resourced classrooms and facilities

      
      

    • A calm, consistent behaviour culture

      
      

    • High-quality CPD and clear career progression opportunities

      
      

    • Leadership that prioritises staff wellbeing

      
      

    • Inner London MPS/UPS salary

      
      

      The school is committed to ensuring that all students, regardless of background, are supported and challenged to achieve at the highest level.

      Safeguarding and Equal Opportunities

      The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. An enhanced DBS check and appropriate pre-employment checks will be required. Applications are welcomed from all suitably qualified candidates.

      This is an opportunity to join a South London school where expectations are high, staff are valued and students are encouraged to aim beyond what they think possible.
