Job details

We are looking to appoint an experienced, dynamic and enthusiastic Head of Media Studies to start in August 2024.

All our classrooms are equipped with interactive smartboards, and students receive iPads upon joining the school, whilst teachers receive both an iPad and a laptop. The school also has a film studio with a green screen and a range of up-to-date equipment.

About you

To be successful, you will be an advanced practitioner able to teach Media to KS4 (International L2 BTEC) and A Level at KS5, as well as English to KS3, who sets a standard that other teachers look to emulate.
