Would you thrive in an inclusive school that allows all students to enjoy high quality learning opportunities where high aspirations can be realised?

My client School is a mixed 11-18 school in Gravesend with approximately 800 on roll. The children thrive in an environment where creativity is encouraged and responsibility is expected.

A recent Ofsted inspection (“Good”) noted that by increasing the focus on high quality teaching this has resulted in improving GCSE outcomes in English, Maths and Humanities. The focus on teaching has ensured that the teaching across the school is “outstanding” and that staff are adequately supported in their planning, delivery and the tracking of student achievement. As the new Geography Teacher and Lead Practitioner you will be a “Good” and “Outstanding” Geography Teacher who can help coach and inspire others around you in ensuring that the standard of teaching is developed and the department continues to flourish. You will be ably supported by the Head of Humanities who will ensure your induction settles you into the school.

As a specialist school in Business and Enterprise, the Secondary School promotes enterprising and creative agenda which permeates all subject areas. The Humanities department forges strong and useful community links at local, regional, national and international level.

The Secondary School is a large, purpose built school with a wide range of learning spaces. There is a large interactive lecture theatre, dance studio, fitness suite and 3G Football pitches. The School is located near to the A2 and is commutable from most parts of Kent and South East London.

So, if you are a “Good” or “Outstanding” Geography Teacher who can start in this progressive Gravesend school, please send your CV to John at Edustaff today!
