Are you in search of your next Geography teaching position in Tower Hamlets for the upcoming summer term?
We are seeking a skilled, dedicated, and forward-thinking Geography teacher to commence a maternity contract lasting a minimum of one year. The position is based in Bethnal Green within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. The school, located in a vibrant community, offers a delightful work environment where staff, students, and parents collaboratively contribute and support each other.
Although the school has faced temporary leadership changes, the recent appointment of a permanent head teacher by the governors brings a positive outlook. With the implementation of several commendable policies, this is an excellent opportunity to join the school on its exciting new journey. Despite being smaller than the average-sized secondary school, it fosters a strong sense of community. Pupils, predominantly from ethnic minority groups, exhibit good behavior supported by an effective new policy. The school provides a diverse range of extracurricular activities, including a basketball academy, debating society, and external awards, contributing to pupils' holistic development.
We are in search of an individual capable of delivering high-quality teaching and learning, facilitating students in reaching their full potential. The ideal candidate will design a stimulating and engaging curriculum tailored to meet individual needs. Encouraging student participation in decision-making processes to foster responsibility is a key aspect of this role. Setting challenging targets, especially for the most able pupils, is expected. The school places importance on effective teaching, focusing on utilizing knowledge to present challenging tasks to pupils, thereby promoting higher expectations and supporting learning improvement.
This position is open for an experienced Geography teacher to join our well-established and supportive department. The starting date is flexible, either at the end of June or in September 2019. The role primarily involves teaching key stage 3 and key stage 4, with the potential opportunity to teach A Level for a suitable candidate. The school follows the OCR A specification for GCSE and EDEXCEL Geography A Level.
Situated centrally in Tower Hamlets, the school is conveniently located near Bethnal Green, providing easy accessibility to various parts of London. The Head teacher has initiated staff training, covering effective team leadership and enhanced teaching and learning development. Staff, including those new to teaching, consistently praise the helpfulness of the training provided.
