1 month ago

St Albans, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Loreto College Full time

Loreto St Albans is an 11-18 girls' academy recognised by OFSTED as outstanding in all areas. With the support of our enthusiastic and accomplished staff our students achieve excellent results, and the Progress 8 performance measure has regularly placed Loreto in the top 4% of schools in the country. The school is oversubscribed and has earned an excellent reputation for discipline, pastoral care and academic standards.

We are looking to appoint an inspirational teacher to join a well-established and successful Classics and Latin Department. The successful candidate will be innovative and have a passion for the subject. They will have the ability to inspire, engage and motivate students, and be able to teach across the whole ability range, KS3, KS4 and ideally KS5.

Visitors often say they are struck by the calm atmosphere of the school and the warmth and kindness of our students and staff. To help you make your decision on whether or not to apply, we can facilitate visits to the school to meet the Headteacher and Classics ann Latin team.

Classics and Latin at Loreto College

The successful candidate will join a successful team of four Classicists, teaching Classical Civilisation and Latin from Year 7 through to Year 13.

All pupils study Latin in Year 7, following the Cambridge Latin Course. In Year 8, our most successful Latinists continue with this course, whilst others switch across to Classical Civilisation. We usually have 10-20 pupils opting for GCSE Latin, and around 50-70 opting for GCSE Classical Civilisation. Both courses are also offered at A-level, provided there is sufficient uptake - we currently have 3 students studying Latin in Year 13, and 17 studying Classical Civilisation. Our results are strong, and several of our students have gone on to study classical courses at a range of universities, including Oxbridge.

Our students are a pleasure to teach. We expect our staff to work hard, and in return we offer plenty of opportunities for further career development.
