Teacher of English (with additional responsibilities for the right candidate)
Silverstone UTC is a purpose-built centre of excellence for young people wanting to break into the specialist fields of High-Performance Engineering and Business with Events Management. It is based in the very heart of British Motorsport, within the Silverstone circuit, in a stunning multi-million-pound facility.
So why Silverstone UTC?
We have most of the features of a typical secondary school - but with a difference! Our curriculum is enhanced by students' regular interactions with our employer partners. We are a smaller school, only catering to students in KS4 and KS5. This means you get to know your colleagues and our students very quickly; it also means that the range of planning our teachers need to do is greatly reduced.Our students tell us that they appreciate our more 'grown-up' environment and the preparation it gives them for their future careers. We are supportive and take care to ensure that our staff have a good work-life balance: there is also plenty of experience in the team and around the UTC to help you settle in.
We pride ourselves on building excellent relationships which makes Silverstone UTC a very happy place to work. Student behaviour is good and teachers are supported well to be able to teach free from disruption.
The successful candidate will work under the direction of the Head of Faculty to plan, organise and deliver an appropriate learning programme that guides and encourages students to develop and fulfil their academic potential in English at KS4 and KS5.
For the right candidate, there is an opportunity for a TLR and greater responsibility.
