A full time, well-qualified and creative teacher of English is required for September 2023.
We are looking for an engaging teacher to support the continuing success of our English faculty. The faculty offers a vibrant English programme including GCSE and A levels in English literature and English language and a variety of English co-curricular activities.
Applicants will be expected to demonstrate an innovative and effective teaching style with excellent subject knowledge. A good English honours degree is required.
The role would suit either an experienced teacher looking for a new challenge or an ECT or UQT for whom first class support will be given. We welcome applications from both the independent and maintained sector.
A willingness to contribute to the co-curricular and pastoral life of the school is essential.
In return you can expect all the benefits of a thriving independent school: a competitive and progressive salary, pension, professional development, laptop, cycle scheme, lunches in term time and on-site parking.
Further details of the role and how to apply can be found under the ‘working at Claremont’ link on the School's website.
Closing date: 9.00am Tuesday 18 April 2023
Interviews: Thursday 20 and Friday 21 April 2023

Claremont Fan Court School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the school is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are “spent” unless they are “protected” under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
