Head of English

We wish to appoint an outstanding and committed Head of English to play a key role  in the next phase of our development.

Haggerston School is a mixed school with a sixth form since 2010, judged 'good' by OFSTED in March 2013.

Our recent OFSTED inspection noted: "the school has gone from strength to strength since the last inspection. Students now make good progress and almost all achieve well." But we are aiming for much higher achievements for them all.

We are looking to appoint an inspiring leader with experience of curriculum development; someone who is an outstanding teacher and who has the energy and commitment to grow and develop the English Faculty and contribute to whole school improvement.

In return we can offer you:

• children and young people who are eager to learn and progress
• staff who are collegiate, committed to their own professional development and to improving outcomes for the students here
• an excellent physical environment recently refurbished and extended under BSF
• a school committed to your professional development
• work in a team where your skills, enthusiasm and hard work will be appreciated
