About Us

Amplify Education is a dynamic new multi-academy trust of 22 schools across Bristol, South Gloucestershire and North Somerset, formed through the thoughtful and planned merger of TiLA and CST. United by a shared vision, we are a bold voice for Bristol - committed to building belief in every young person, expanding opportunities, nurturing potential, and strengthening citizenship.

We are ambitious, reflective, and collaborative - driven to improve outcomes for young people while working together, learning from one another and continually strengthening our practice. If you are looking to make a real difference within a forward-thinking and supportive Trust, Amplify Education could be the place for you.

We invite you to join our team at Bristol Cathedral Choir School. We exist to provide a world-class education for the children of Bristol – so that they leave with a deep understanding of the world around them. The school is a highly oversubscribed state cathedral choir school with a rich history and a Christian ethos. It is a music school, educating choristers for Bristol Cathedral for the past 880 years and offers an enhanced and rich musical experience for all. The school provides a traditional academic curriculum to its students, regardless of their background or ability, and emphasises the teaching of ‘Powerful Knowledge’.

The Opportunity

We are looking for an enthusiastic Teacher of Economics to join our high-performing team from September 2026. If you join us, a typical week in this role may see you delivering engaging and thought-provoking Economics lessons across Key Stage 5, inspiring students to develop a strong understanding of economic theory and real-world application.

About You

You are likely to have developed expert subject knowledge and strong teaching practice through your career or personal experience. You will be someone who has a positive disposition, who has attention to detail, who is a rule follower and who is a team player. You will have Qualified Teaching Status (or soon to acquire it, if training).
