The Head of English plays a pivotal role in empowering students to succeed and make a positive impact in our community.

We are actively seeking candidates who are eager to join our vibrant school community. We are in search of individuals who are excited about the prospect of our rapid improvement journey and who possess the ability to make valuable contributions to our team. We firmly believe in the power of teamwork; while perfection may be elusive on an individual level, together as a team, we can achieve greatness, this is why we encourage applications from individuals with diverse and varied backgrounds and experiences. We recognise the value of different perspectives and understand the importance of inclusivity.
