St Catherine’s is a school very proud of its friendly atmosphere, excellent pastoral care and strong academic reputation. Our School Mission captures the spirit of our happy, confident and inclusive community.

We seek an experienced, well-qualified and enthusiastic school leader; the successful candidate may have leadership experience and/or the aspiration to lead. You will build on existing strengths, manage the curriculum and teaching and learning in an innovative, rigorous and creative manner, and lead the Department into further success. You will lead a department of five teachers. Public exam results are strong, and English Literature is popular at A Level.

The School is interested in applicants who are ambitious about pupil progress and committed to creating a dynamic, rich and broad curriculum. Initiatives to strengthen the exciting extension and enrichment programme will be valued, as will a well-judged and knowledgeable focus on the learning needs of individual pupils.

The Head of English will lead a team committed to an excellent taught curriculum and to providing other opportunities to develop pupils’ confidence and love of literature, for instance, through creative writing, competitions and theatre trips.

The English Department is housed in a series of large and well-resourced classrooms, each with an interactive whiteboard. Classes from Years 7 to 11 are set by ability. The Department follows the AQA GCSE syllabus and Edexcel for A Level.

If you feel you have the experience, enthusiasm and commitment we are looking for, then we would be delighted to receive an application from you.

Please download the supporting information and return your application form to: recruitment@stcatherineschool.co.uk

Closing date: 9am on Monday 13 May 2024.

Interviews will be held soon after.

Applications will be reviewed as they are received, so early application is recommended, and the school reserves the right to appoint prior to the closing date.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Appointment will be subject to a number of safer recruitment checks, including an enhanced DBS check as part of Keeping Children Safe in Education, and once in post, receive further training and updates.
