The Opportunity Leicester is one of the most culturally diverse and historically rich cities in the UK—the final resting place of Richard III and a modern hub for the space industry and creative arts. We are seeking an intellectually ambitious English Teacher to join an Ofsted-rated 'Outstanding' secondary academy . In this role, you will inspire students to master the power of language and the depth of literature, utilizing Leicester’s vibrant multicultural identity to explore how diverse narratives shape our understanding of the world. The Department & Literary Culture You will join a high-performing English faculty where the subject is celebrated as the heartbeat of the school’s academic and cultural life. The department fosters a "discourse-heavy" environment, encouraging students to engage in rigorous textual analysis, sophisticated debate, and creative expression. As an "Outstanding" setting, we prioritise a curriculum that balances technical grammatical precision with a deep, empathetic exploration of the literary canon and contemporary global voices. We maintain active links with regional cultural institutions, such as the Curve Theatre, providing students with unique opportunities for workshops and live performance experiences. Core Responsibilities Exemplary Instruction: Delivering high-challenge English Language and Literature lessons across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, with significant opportunities for A-Level instruction for suitably qualified candidates. Textual Inquiry: Guiding students through the interrogation of complex texts, fostering the ability to identify nuanced themes, structural choices, and the socio-political contexts of authors. Written Eloquence: Systematically developing students' ability to write with clarity, flair, and purpose, whether for academic analysis, persuasive rhetoric, or creative storytelling. Data-Driven Progress: Utilising the academy’s robust assessment framework to provide granular feedback, ensuring students are equipped to meet the high demands of AQA, Edexcel, or Eduqas specifications. Oracy Leadership: Coordinating extra-curricular initiatives, such as debating societies or school magazines, to promote a vibrant culture of literacy and expression across the academy. The Successful Candidate We are looking for a subject authority who believes that the study of English is essential for developing informed, articulate, and empathetic citizens. Requirements include: English Teacher | Institution | Dates (Please provide your specific details to finalize this section). Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and a strong honours degree in English Literature, English Language, or a closely related discipline. Proven Track Record: Evidence of delivering exceptional learning outcomes at GCSE and A-Level, with a deep understanding of terminal examination requirements and assessment objectives. Pedagogical Flair: The ability to bring a wide range of texts to life, making the microscopic details of language and the macroscopic themes of literature accessible to all learners. Why Join Us? The chance to work in an "Outstanding" environment where student behaviour is exemplary and English is held in the highest academic regard. Unrivalled professional development pathways, including opportunities for middle leadership and specialised training in advanced pedagogical techniques. The opportunity to work in Leicester—a city offering an exceptional quality of life, a world-famous food scene, and a community that truly celebrates its global heritage. A prestigious professional community that values innovation, intellectual ambition, and the holistic development of every student.
