Full Time Permanent from September 2024
Hours: Full time
Closing Date: Midday 19 April 2024
From September 2024, we are looking to appoint an inspirational and enthusiastic teacher to lead our fantastic team of English specialists. This would be an amazing opportunity for somebody taking on their first subject leadership role, but would be equally suitable for an experienced Head of English looking for career enhancement.

Staff and students are incredibly friendly and work together with mutual respect. Senior leaders are open and supportive and genuinely understand the need for a school-life balance.
