Tradewind is working with an "Outstanding" St Albans girls' school, seeking an English teacher to start full-time in September and continue through the school yeah, with permanent options to be discussed next summer.

This is a highly sought-after school by both local parents and teachers, not only due to the school's impressive academic achievements but due to their tranquil, supportive and charmingly traditional atmosphere. Staff retention is very high and this vacancy has only come to us through a teacher relocating abroad- with consistent support from SLT and outstanding standards of behaviour and commitment to learning from the girls, this is not a school teachers want to leave!

This role will entail teaching English from Key Stage 3 due to Key Stage 5, working in a large, supportive department whose staff range from NQTs to seasoned teachers. English is a highly popular subject among the students with strong uptake at A-Level and excellent results at both KS4 and KS5- expectations will be high here, but it is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious English teacher to make their mark and see some outstanding results.

The school is seeking a teacher who will:
* Be an outstanding practitioner who will contribute significantly to raising standards of teaching and learning
* Have a passion for raising student achievement
* Be committed to supporting and enhancing our extra-curricular opportunities within English and Drama
* Instil a love of learning and support students to develop the highest ambitions

This school takes pride in their CPD provision and offers excellent training, mentoring and support for NQTs, as well as a full induction for all new staff. While they do not specialise in a particular subject, due to an enthusiastic community of alumni donors the school enjoys state-of-the-art facilities for all departments, including an impressive library where they regularly invite authors to address their students.

Located in West Herts and attracting the London Fringe bonus, the school is easily accessible from the M1 and M25 and has good public transport links to Watford, St. Albans and Hemel Hempstead, as well as free onsite parking for staff.

In order to be considered for this English Teacher position you will need:
* QTS status or equivalent (overseas teachers will be considered with appropriate NARIC certification)
* Enhanced DBS or Overseas Police Checks if necessary
* An updated CV, covering the last 10 years of employment, with 2 recent references
* A legal right to work in the UK (We are not able to offer sponsorship for this role)
