Lancashire, United Kingdom Unity College Full time

We are seeking to appoint a Head of English to join our Extended Leadership Team at Unity College. This is an opportunity for an excellent teacher who is looking to further develop their leadership skills, and have a significant impact on whole-school policy and practice.

Our primary focus is, and will always be, developing a superb curriculum across all areas of the College. Curriculum and pedagogy underpin all we do and all staff at Unity College are committed to their own learning as well as their teaching.

Ultimately, the Head of Department sets the climate and culture for their department and how students act from the moment they enter classrooms in the department is shaped by the expectations and actions of that person. This isn’t always easy but the impact that one person can have on hundreds of young people’s lives is huge.

Working at Unity College is tremendously rewarding and this role is a fantastic opportunity to make a real difference to young people’s lives as well as offering abundant prospects for professional development. As a College we are firmly committed to continuous professional development for all and we invest heavily in developing our staff at all levels.

**We offer**:

- the opportunity to be integral to College improvement
- well-considered professional development and a wide range of professional opportunities, including significant leadership development opportunities
- excellent career progression opportunities
- a high level of support for all new staff
- an exciting and stimulating place to work in a friendly environment
- a modern, purpose-built building and excellent facilities

**You will**:

- share the College’s very high expectations
- be an excellent classroom practitioner
- be committed to working collaboratively with colleagues, students and parents
- be confident in your ability to support and develop colleagues
- be enthusiastic about giving young people the best possible start in life

Unity College is a co-educational, 11-16 college. By September 2025, we will be the largest 11-16 secondary school in Lancashire, with 1500 students on roll.
