The Opportunity Cambridge is a city that breathes literature, from its world-renowned university libraries to the historic streets that have inspired poets and novelists for centuries. We are seeking an articulate and inspiring English Teacher to join a 'Good' secondary school . In this role, you will nurture a love for language and storytelling in a city synonymous with academic achievement, helping students find their own voices as they engage with the greatest works of the English literary canon. The Department & Literary Culture You will join a vibrant English faculty that views the subject as the cornerstone of critical thinking, empathy, and cultural capital. The department follows a diverse and challenging curriculum, balancing the study of Shakespeare and the Romantic poets with contemporary global voices and influential non-fiction. As a 'Good' school, we are committed to broadening student horizons through regular theater trips—benefiting from our proximity to the Cambridge Arts Theatre and London’s West End—and hosting visiting authors and poets. The department is a hub for literacy innovation, utilizing evidence-based strategies to close the attainment gap and ensure every student becomes a confident, sophisticated communicator. Core Responsibilities Instructional Excellence: Teaching English Language and Literature across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 (GCSE), fostering a classroom environment of high-level academic discourse. Textual Analysis: Guiding students to deconstruct complex texts, identifying the nuances of form, structure, and language, and understanding how writers respond to their historical and social contexts. Creative & Transactional Writing: Developing students' ability to write with flair and precision, whether they are crafting original narratives or persuasive rhetorical pieces. Diagnostic Feedback: Utilizing regular assessment to identify areas for growth, providing the detailed feedback necessary for students to master the sophisticated essay-writing skills required for GCSE success. Oracy & Debate: Leading classroom discussions that build students' confidence in public speaking and their ability to challenge ideas respectfully and logically. The Successful Candidate We are looking for a practitioner who is as passionate about the mechanics of grammar as they are about the power of a metaphor. Requirements include: Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a degree in English Literature, Language, or a related discipline. Subject Passion: A deep-seated love for reading and the ability to share that enthusiasm with students of all backgrounds and abilities. Pedagogical Range: The ability to teach the technicalities of the English language alongside the creative interpretation of literature. Collaboration: A proactive team player who is eager to share resources and contribute to the collective success of the English faculty. Why Join Us? A school that values English as a flagship subject, providing a generous curriculum allocation and a supportive environment for staff. Access to specialized professional development through regional teaching school hubs and the rich academic networks of Cambridgeshire. The opportunity to work in Cambridge—a city offering an unparalleled quality of life, stunning architecture, and a community that deeply respects the teaching profession. A warm, collaborative staff culture where professional growth and work-life balance are prioritized by the leadership team. How to Apply Please submit your current CV and a brief letter of application to begin the process for this English Teacher position. An enhanced DBS check will be required for the successful candidate.
