Teacher of English with Responsibility

About our Trust
We are a Trust of nine schools, all based in South-East London. Whilst each of our schools maintains its individuality, we share a common mission: to ensure that every single child and young person in our care is successful at school so that they can flourish and be successful in their lives.
Our mission is simple – we want pupils to ‘Become their best at Borough’ in all aspects of their lives. We have the highest aspirations for each young person we work with and strive to help them to fulfil their potential.
Our Academy values, which were created by our young people, speak to that. We expect our learners to become excellent ambassadors for their community, by working hard to achieve their aspirations, whilst becoming kind and resilient citizens.
Our location in the centre of the capital allows us to provide a unique take on the curriculum, making the most of partnerships with world leading organisations which enrich and enhance our offer. In all areas of the curriculum, we aim to ignite a spark which enables our young people to become scholars of their chosen subject disciplines.
About the Role
We are seeking and passionate and talented candidate to teach English from KS3 to KS5.
The successful candidate will love their subject; and be committed to contributing to the development of the department.
English is particularly important at our Academy. We believe that reading is the gateway to the curriculum, and pupils experiences in the English curriculum are central to their wider success. Our location at the heart of the city provides a unique location to bring the curriculum to life.Dickens and Shakespeare are just two writers who brought their stories to life on our doorstep!
Equality and Diversity
We recognise the benefits of a diverse workforce. We are committed to eradicating discrimination in the workplace, becoming an employer of choice, for all staff to believe that they have a voice and be empowered to make a difference.
Safeguarding
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and we expect all staff and volunteers to share in this commitment.
