YOUR ROLE AS A TEACHER

At Stephen Perse everyone is a learner. While our pupils enjoy the benefits of a creative and innovative learning environment, our teachers strive to inspire and engage through using a wide range of pedagogical approaches.
We want every teacher to offer the very best in teaching and learning to our students and this will inevitably, and perhaps even increasingly, involve the digital world. We are iPad 1-to-1 from 11 to 18 and our Junior Schools use class sets. We are a leader in the use of digital technology within the classroom. This helps us to support our teachers and learners to have an appropriate use of these technologies.
We don’t need you to be a fluent or confident user of technology before you start working with us, but we will want you to have an agile and ambitious mind-set that is open to adopting new techniques. Training and support are offered on a regular basis as part of formal and informal CPD and is focused on student learning.

ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC RESPONSIBILITIES:

• To contribute to extracurricular and enrichment activities as appropriate.
• To fulfil a pastoral role within the Senior School or Sixth Form College as a Co-Tutor of an assigned Form or as a Sixth-form Tutor and to contribute to the guidance and PSHE programmes as appropriate.

GENERAL RESPONSIBILITIES

• Build and maintain good working relationships with all Stephen Perse colleagues.

• Proactively identify areas for improvements within Stephen Perse.
• Actively promote Stephen Perse Equal Opportunities Policy, encouraging staff awareness and participation in all areas.
