The posting
At Redden Court School we prioritise the development of outstanding teaching and learning alongside wellbeing. All members of the school community are cared for, valued and listened to, we support and challenge our students to aspire to be the very best that they can be; enabling them to be responsible, capable and ambitious citizens. We have the highest expectations of our students and staff.
We invest in our staff to help them to become the best possible teachers they can be. There are excellent opportunities for people who work hard. Effort is often recognised in career development. Many who came to us as ECTs now have substantial leadership roles. Our CPD programme and collegiate approach are highly effective.
If you are an inspiring, enthusiastic Teacher of Business Studies who recognises that the best practitioners always want to improve, we would like to talk to you. The ability to teach some Information Technology is also desirable.
Our Digital Faculty currently consists of Computer Science, Information Technology and Business Studies, with a variety of experience ranging across these subject areas. We are looking for someone to join the Business Studies team as an expansion of this area, building upon the solid foundation in place and shaping the future of this important subject and popular option choice.
Business is embedded into our Year 9 KS3 curriculum with dedicated periods on our timetable each week, along with an extra slot for Information Technology which is taught through Years 7-9. GCSE Business Studies and GCSE Computer Science are currently options available for our KS4 cohort and remain very popular choices each year.
