Are you passionate about inspiring the next generation of entrepreneurs and business leaders?

Join the ambitious and supportive team at Edgar Wood Academy as a Teacher of Business Studies.

We are looking for an outstanding, dynamic teacher who is committed to delivering engaging, high-quality lessons that bring business concepts to life.

At Edgar Wood Academy, teaching is more than delivering lessons. It’s about building strong relationships, having high expectations, inspiring ambition, and modelling the values of Resilience, Empathy, Responsibility, and Respect every day. You will work collaboratively with a passionate team, benefit from a culture of professional growth, and be supported to continuously develop your practice.

In recognition of excellence, a £2,000 new starter payment is available for an exceptional candidate who joins our thriving school community.
