We are seeking to recruit a dynamic and enthusiastic person to join our friendly and caring Pre-Prep and Prep Department. Teaching classes for September have not been decided yet, so we will take into account the experience of the successful candidate when allocating classes . Applications from ECTs and experienced teachers are welcome.
We have wonderful pupils who have a passion for learning and deserve the very best. Our Pre-Prep and Prep staff nurture and encourage our children by creating an environment which is supportive, positive and respectful. There is a real ‘family feel’ which is evident as soon as you step inside.
Our small classes allow us to know our pupils as individuals and to tailor our teaching accordingly. The children learn to collaborate and communicate, and are encouraged to be creative and use their imaginations. They take a real pride in their work, are well-motivated and embrace the challenges of new learning.
Our days are busy ones: outside of the classroom, there is a wide range of activities and events which our children can participate in enabling them to discover their talents, broaden their horizons and develop resilience. Class trips take place each term and there are residential trips for our older Prep pupils. Our staff are prepared to go the extra mile for our pupils to enable them to reach their full potential.
Please read the candidate pack for all the information relating to this post.
