What skills and experience we're looking for

This is an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic and motivated English specialist to join our successful department.

We are seeking to appoint a capable, dynamic and creative individual with excellent subject knowledge and a passion for teaching language and literature. The appointed candidate will demonstrate excellence in teaching and learning and an ability to engage and inspire students of all ages and attainment levels.

The English Department at Linton Village College is friendly, committed and hard working. We welcome applications from talented, positive and collaborative individuals who are keen to contribute to an ambitious, inclusive and enriching curriculum experience.

The vacancy would suit a part time Early Careers Teacher or an experienced applicant that is interested in working three days a week. However, we may consider full-time hours for the right candidate with flexibility to teach a second subject. We are also advertising for a Second in English with the potential to award a TLR to a capable and ambitious candidate to support the Head of English with curriculum leadership responsibilities. The successful candidate will also play a role in our highly supportive pastoral team as a form tutor.

We are interested in your application if you

  • are an excellent classroom practitioner with a passion for your subject;
  • have a track record or potential for securing strong academic outcomes;
  • are a collaborative, organised and creative teacher;
  • are keen to contribute to enrichment opportunities.

Requests for flexibility in working arrangements/patterns will be considered.
