Description:
Whitgift is one of Britain’s leading independent day and boarding schools, set in an attractive 48-acre parkland site in South Croydon enjoying excellent links to London, Surrey and the south coast. We are proud to be able to offer:
- a unique, tailor-made education for boys aged 10-18
- beautiful and historic parkland site with outstanding facilities
- a record of outstanding academic achievement
- superb facilities for over 40 sports, an exciting performing arts programme and wide range of co-curricular activities
- excellent pastoral care
We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified, enthusiastic and dedicated teacher to join a dynamic, friendly and highly successful department from September 2024. Examination results are outstanding in both subjects and applicants will:
- have excellent subject knowledge (experience teaching GCSE and/or A level/IB Economics or A Level Business would be an advantage)
- have the skills to promote a collaborative learning culture to maintain high standards
- be able to demonstrate a talent for motivating and enthusing young learners to achieve their best
- have excellent planning and preparation skills
- have the ability to problem-solve and manage classroom behaviour effectively
- be resilient under pressure
- have excellent written and verbal communication skills
The post is suitable for experienced teachers as well as those new to the profession who may be able to participate in our highly regarded PGCE programme. A proactive culture of supporting and developing talented and inspiring teachers is supported by the Senior Leadership Team. Whitgift is a large and busy school and there are many potential opportunities for colleagues to take on additional responsibilities.
As our department teaches both Economics and Business, we welcome applications from specialists in either subject. Teaching allocations between Economics and Business will be subject to the School’s needs and this can be discussed at interview. Teachers in the department generally teach across both subjects.
Staff will be encouraged to contribute fully to the co-curricular life of the School and this is reflected in the salary offered. A strong commitment to the pastoral and house system is also anticipated.
In return we offer a generous salary and benefits package including membership of the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (including Life Assurance cover), Employee Discount Club, discount on school fees for the Foundation Schools (permanent posts only), membership of a healthcare plan, a range of family-friendly benefits and season ticket loan.
We welcome applications from all parts of our community as we aspire to attract staff that match the social and cultural diversity of our student intake.
