Who are we looking for?

The City of Leicester College is seeking to employ an enthusiastic and highly motivated Teacher of Religious Studies from August 2024 with applications welcome from teachers at all stages of their career, including ECTs and the more experienced.

This is an exciting time to be joining The City of Leicester College. Religious Studies is highly valued in the school and has generous curriculum time and a large department of subject specialists.

In recent years, we have made huge changes to ensure that ambition sits at the heart of everything we do. The changes we have made to curriculum, behaviour and personal development programs have seen us deliver the best exam results we have ever had by some considerable margin.
