Required from January 2025, we are seeking to appoint a Teacher of English (0.6fte) to join a passionate, experienced and high performing department.

We are looking for someone able to teach Key Stage 3-5, who is innovative, creative and passionate about English. The successful candidate will love the challenge of working with teenagers and committed to supporting them to be creative, reflective and resilient learners. They will deliver high quality rigorous lessons that inspire a love of English amongst all students which extends beyond the classroom. They will share our aspiration to help realise the school's vision 'Always our best because everyone matters'. The English Faculty has a track-record of providing a broad experience for students. As well as securing excellent outcomes, the department prides itself on the variety of trips and competitions that students are able to access. This would suit an experienced teacher or equally, a strong NQT. There is a possibility of a TLR for the right candidate.

Bishop Luffa School is a very special place to work. Our students are proud of their school and take part in an incredible number of extra-curricular activities, such as House Drama, the Sixth Form Fashion Show and Charity Week. We would like to hear from people who share our vision that we are here to show students ‘life in all its fullness’ and who firmly believe that learning extends beyond the classroom.

Bishop Luffa School is a fully comprehensive 11-18 Church School, which has been judged as Outstanding in all areas by Ofsted. I hope that we live our Christian values of love and respect, which all of our staff and students support, regardless of their beliefs.

If you are able to inspire and motive students in order to help them achieve their full potential, we would welcome your application. I would encourage you to come and view the school and looking forward to meeting you.
