A rare opportunity has arisen for a dynamic teacher to join a successful and flourishing PE department. You will be an outstanding classroom practitioner whose passion and subject knowledge promotes students’ enjoyment of PE.  The successful candidate will have expertise in teaching across a range of sports, providing challenge for the most able students as well as ensuring effective support where needed. 

Our PE curriculum is structured to foster a lifelong love of physical activity while promoting skill development, teamwork and resilience. Students experience a broad mix of traditional and contemporary sports, with opportunities to tailor their Core PE pathway from Year 9. We currently offer both AQA GCSE and A-Level PE, with strong uptake in each.  Beyond the curriculum, we provide a wide range of enrichment opportunities including sports clubs, fitness sessions and regular participation in inter-school and external competitions.

This is an exciting time to join our team!  Whether an ECT or an experienced teacher, we welcome applications from teachers who share our vision for an inspiring and inclusive PE programme.
