Teacher of Geography

Required from September 2023

The Joseph Whitaker School is a popular oversubscribed school of 1380 students with attainment levels above the national average at both GCSE and post 16. We were inspected in March 2019 and the school was again judged as being “good”; it is worth reading the Ofsted letter as this gives a true flavour of our school.

Due to one of our current Geography Teachers relocating abroad, the Governors are seeking to appoint a well-qualified Geography Teacher with initiative, drive and determination. We have extremely high expectations of our students, and staff, and we offer excellent training and professional development opportunities. This position would be ideal for either someone looking to broaden their experience, or an ECT teacher. 

To apply, pleases visit the Trust website www.emet.uk.com/vacancies and complete the online application form. 

On the application form, please focus on a detailed 'supporting statement' taking into account the person specification and indicating why you would be the best person for us to recruit to this position.

Candidates are more than welcome to visit the school at any time and/or please view our school website josephwhitaker.org.

The successful candidate will have to meet the requirements of the person specification in order to be offered the post, will be required to undergo a full enhanced DBS check and must be eligible to work in the UK. The Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Safeguarding checks will be undertaken during the recruitment process and this may include online searches.

We welcome applications regardless of age, gender, ethnicity or religion.

The closing date for applications is 9:00AM on 27th March 2023.
