Teacher of English with Media

Are you passionate about Media and English, and eager to inspire students in these subjects? An exciting opportunity has arisen for a passionate and talented teacher to join our team.

This is an exciting opportunity to work within two successful and well-established departments, delivering classes within KS3–5 for English, and GCSES and A Level. 

The successful applicant will have a passion for their subjects and have an understanding of the strategies required to motivate and inspire students who can contribute to an excellent team achieving equally impressive results. Above all else, the successful candidate should be enthusiastic about their work with young people and have a genuine concern for their development as individuals. Applications from ECTs are encouraged and welcome.

Both departments are well resourced, highly valued and collaborative. Media Studies is well resourced with a full-time technician and dedicated classrooms offering the necessary software and hardware to enable students to succeed.

This role has the potential of getting involved in Classics for the right person.

The main campus for TWGSB is in Tunbridge Wells. However, you may be required to work at other campuses connected to TWGSB. 

Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys is one of the largest boys’ grammar schools in the country. In late 2021, we benefited from a multi-million pound investment, which resulted in a brand-new sports building at our Tunbridge Wells campus and the opening of our Sevenoaks campus. 

We can offer you the opportunity to work with highly able young people in a supportive, well-equipped and forward-thinking school. We offer a friendly and inclusive working environment and the chance to be part of a fantastic multidisciplinary team, who work hard and support each other to deliver personalised, bespoke education and care.

Staff benefit from a positive working environment, with strong support for professional development and specialist teaching rooms. We aim for high standards and the pursuit of academic excellence, helping every student to reach their full potential through the development of skills, concepts and knowledge, within the framework of a caring community. Relationships between staff and students are based on trust, mutual respect and a determination to succeed.

Please note that we will only accept CVs that are accompanied by an application form (see below). We shall review applications as we receive them so apply early! We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role.
