An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Teacher of English to join a highly successful department at this major London day school.

The current vacancy offers an exciting opportunity for an enthusiastic teacher to develop, or perhaps to begin, their career in a lively and innovative setting as part of a dynamic, supportive and collaborative department. The successful applicant will be a strong graduate of a relevant degree course, with a deep passion for English Literature and the ability to convey this effectively to pupils across all age groups.

This is an outstanding opportunity to teach English at a high level in a congenial and stimulating setting. We welcome equally applications from teachers in the maintained sector and the independent sector, as well as from those without a formal teaching qualification.

A willingness to contribute to the extra-curricular life of the school will be an additional and important recommendation. We expect all of our teachers to be Form Tutors.

In addition to completing the accompanying form, applicants should provide a full Curriculum Vitae and a supporting letter. The closing date for applications is Thursday 20 March, 12 pm. However, please note that we reserve the right to interview and appoint at any stage during this process; early applications are therefore very welcome.

University College School is fully committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The successful applicant will be required to undertake an Enhanced check for Regulated Activity from the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) before a formal offer of employment is made. This is a requirement as the position is within a school working with children aged under 18. UCS will also undertake its own recruitment checks through contact with previous employers, referees, and others, to confirm applicants’ identities and their professional records.
