We are looking for an aspirational teacher to teach Humanities at John O’Gaunt School, up to KS4. Do you have the drive and enthusiasm to make a real impact on children's life chances by teaching this subject? We will consider full or part-time applications. 

John O'Gaunt School is situated in the beautiful historic market town of Hungerford on the Berkshire/Wiltshire border and is very much at the heart of the community it serves. There are good road and rail links, with easy access to the M4 and a 10 minute walk from the station.

This is an exciting time to join our friendly community school, which is part of Excalibur Academies Trust.  The school roll has grown, and our students make every day worthwhile.  Our values of ‘Ambition’, ‘Care’ and ‘Courage’ are at the heart of everything that we do and apply to both students and staff.  This means that we offer all of the benefits and rewards of larger schools, whilst offering the care and support that only a smaller school like ours can.  John O’Gaunt is a rewarding place to work and truly has a family feel.

Additionally, we offer;

Generous relocation package

Teachers' Pension Scheme

Employee Assistance Scheme, as part of a strong wellbeing programme

Career development opportunities within school and across the Trust

Strong Professional Development based on individual needs

Cycle to Work Scheme

Flexible Family Friendly Policies

Excellent resources and facilities - the department has full technician support

We never forget that the strength of our organisation is entirely dependent upon the quality of our people and that it is our responsibility to offer the best training, support and development for every member of staff. This starts from the moment you join with a comprehensive onboarding programme, management support and wide ranging CPD opportunities.

We reserve the right to appoint before the deadline if appropriate so would encourage early applications.
