Director of English

MPS/UPS + Fringe allowance + TLR1B

Full time

Permanent Contract

We are seeking a dynamic, engaging and innovative subject specialist to lead our English department. Candidates should have excellent communication skills, a track record of improving results and a passion for English.

The English Faculty has a long-established history of exam success in English. In 2026, 85% of students gained grades 9-4 at GCSE; 33% of those grades were 9-7 placing Verulam’s results in the top 20% in England. Our Sixth Form is co-ed and our subject offer includes A Level Literature (AQA).

Verulam places great emphasis on extra-curricular activity and engagement and benefits from outstanding attendance and exemplary behaviour.

Verulam School is a high achieving boys’ school with a mixed Sixth Form, which forms part of the highly successful BeauSandVer consortium. As a school, our core values of “Excellence, Character, Respect” permeate all that we do. We are located in St Albans, a beautiful and vibrant Cathedral city with a lively cultural life and a huge variety of restaurants, bars, pubs and shops. Recently named in the Sunday Times as the best place in the southeast to live, St Albans is surrounded by beautiful countryside but is still only 20 minutes from London by train and with easy access to motorways and airports.

The school has excellent GCSE and A Level results. It was judged to be a Good school in all categories by Ofsted in May 2024.

Verulam School is a member of the Ambition Education Trust (AET), which comprises a mix of primary and secondary schools in Hertfordshire.

Verulam School is an equal opportunity employer, committed to diversity and the creation of an inclusive environment for all employees. Employment selections are made according to suitability for the post, irrespective of background or protected characteristic.

Verulam School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.

If you wish to have a tour of the school or ask any questions, please contact Roberta Williams on [email protected] or 01727 766100.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
