Teacher of English

We are looking for a passionate and inspiring qualified Teacher of English to join our supportive and talented team at Tewksbury Academy. We are a growing organisation, looking for professional ambitious people, with a passion for transforming our students’ learning.

The Academy is well placed at Junction 9 of the M5. It is equi-distant between Bristol and Birmingham and close to the Cotswolds, the Malvern Hills and the historic towns of Gloucester, Worcester and Cheltenham. Tewkesbury itself is a pretty, medieval market town with fine half-timbered buildings, overhanging upper storeys, narrow alleys and a beautiful 12th century Norman abbey.

Your opportunity:

We can offer you the opportunity to advance your career within a supportive academy environment. We provide excellent training and development opportunities within the Federation, including a full induction programme for early career and experienced teachers. Training is both local and/or delivered through our excellent stand-alone training facility at the CLF Institute. For teachers, the CLF Institute aims to provide a continuum of development through each career stage from initial teacher training (ITT), for Early Career Teachers (ECT), recently qualified teachers in their early career development, to successive stages of leadership through to Headship and beyond. 

What we are looking for:

We look for passionate individuals who want to be a part of transforming education and will make an active contribution to the development of the Cabot Learning Federation and chosen Academy. You will be used to planning and consistently delivering high quality lessons, will have experience in delivering the curriculum in your chosen area and will be a strong communicator with the ability to embrace change and motivate colleagues and students. A well-qualified specialist, holding QTS (or equivalent) and a relevant undergraduate degree, you will have the ability to teach Key Stage 3- Key Stage 4. Teaching at KS5 in English or media is also possible but not essential. We look for professionals who have excellent class management skills and have high expectations of work and behaviour.
