join a dynamic, experienced and deeply committed department at Wembley High Technology
College and/or North Brent School. This is an exciting opportunity for a
teacher who is passionate about English and keen to contribute to a
high-performing team with a strong track record of success.
English is a
thriving and well-established strength of the College. All students study both
English Language and English Literature at Key Stages 3 and 4, and outcomes are
exceptional: in Summer 2024, 89% of students achieved Grade 4+ in GCSE English
and Maths combined, significantly above the national average of 65%. At Key
Stage 5, English is a popular and successful subject, with A Level English
forming a key part of our academic offer.
From September 2026,
the Trust will launch the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IB

the development of a brand-new, ambitious curriculum. This represents a
significant platform for professional growth, curriculum design, and
collaboration within a forward-thinking educational environment.
The successful

classroom, and will play a key role in further developing English across the
Trust. They will also contribute to our vibrant and wide-ranging
extra-curricular programme, which includes House creative writing, a House
Haiku competition, and a variety of public speaking forums that enrich
students’ cultural capital and love of language.
