Teacher of Drama
Portobello High School
Salary: £32, - £48,
Hours: 35 per week
Portobello High School is a six year comprehensive based in the East of Edinburgh with a school roll of over young people, drawn mainly from five associate primary schools – Brunstane, Duddingston, Parsons Green, Royal High and Towerbank.
In October the school moved into a superb new building on Milton Road close to rail, bus and road links. The school has well-established links with its community and the proximity of Edinburgh College, four Universities and all that the Scotland’s capital city has to offer gives scope for the development of further partnerships. Significant investment has been made in digital technology to support effective learning and all staff and all young people have their own iPad. This is enhanced by 80” teaching screens connected to Apple TV throughout.
Our improvement plan reflects local CEC and national priorities. There are a wide range of quality opportunities for staff to engage in high quality professional learning. We are firmly committed to raising attainment and promoting achievement and the school offers a wide variety of extra-curricular activities. The school places a great deal of emphasis on the importance of building positive relationships with young people and has introduced a number of innovative approaches to strengthen these. Our #AchievingTogether strategy underpins all we do.
This post represents a great opportunity for the right person to join a large staff team and work in a truly comprehensive setting.

In the BGE Drama classes are taught weekly in practical sets of no more than 20 pupils and all S3 pupils are required to take at least one Expressive Art from a choice of Art & Design, Drama, Music, Music Tech and Photography. We receive positive uptake for elective SQA courses across all levels from National 5 to Advanced Higher. The department is well resourced and positioned right at the heart of the school and plays a key part in the broader life of the school and its wider community.
