Teacher of Economics

4 weeks ago


Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom The Skinners' School Full time

We are looking for a talented and enthusiastic teacher, with the ability to teach bright pupils through GCSE and A level, to join a successful department. The role is full-time, starting 1st September 2024. Salary will be commensurate with the qualifications and experience of the successful applicant, but we welcome Early Career Teachers as much as we do experienced teachers. We also welcome those with a specialism in either of the two subjects, Economics or Business.

Numbers studying GCSE and A level are very high and growing. This academic year we have close to 200 students studying GCSE Economics or Business. At A level we have 90 students studying Economics or Business. A large percentage of students go on to read Economics or Business related degrees at Russell Group universities, including Oxbridge.

GCSE Economics follows the AQA course with an emphasis on “How markets work” in year in Year 10 and “How the economy works” in Year 11. In September 2019 we introduced GCSE Business to our curriculum, following the AQA specification.

In Key Stage 5 Economics, we follow the AQA syllabus which is made up of two main modules: “markets and market failure” and “the national and international economy”. At A level the syllabus is divided into Microeconomics and Macroeconomics, with one member of staff teaching the first module and the second member of staff teaching the second.

We introduced Business A level in September 2015 and are following the Edexcel course, something that has proven to be popular. In Year 12, students are introduced to business and build knowledge on core business concepts and theories. In Year 13, students develop a breadth and depth to this knowledge and will be required to take a more strategic view of business opportunities and issues.

The successful applicant will be an outstanding teacher with excellent subject knowledge supported by a good honours degree in Economics or a related subject. The ability to form good working relationships with colleagues and students is essential.

 

The closing date for applications is Friday 10th May 2024 at 12 noon with interviews shortly thereafter.
