Current Opportunities

Teacher of English

We are looking to appoint a well-qualified and dynamic teacher to teach English to pupils across the prep school age range teaching up to Common Entrance and possibly scholarship level. The candidate would also work as a form tutor and ideally coach Games too.

The position would suit a teacher with senior school (independent or maintained sector) experience, as well as those who have experience of teaching children of prep school age (8-13 years). We would also welcome suitable applicants or graduates from a related industry or field and would provide appropriate training as required.

We are always look to appoint new Gap Students for a fixed period of January – December. This post would be ideal for school leavers who are interested in a career in education and are keen to gain experience of school and boarding life.

Our Gappies play an active role in the life of the school, assisting staff and pupils both in the classroom and through the daily routines of our thriving boarding community. Gap Students are expected to offer academic support, particularly in core subjects, and to contribute positively to the school’s rich co-curricular programme, including sport, music and drama.
