The ability to teach a second subject is desirable
Compass School Southwark is a four-form entry, mixed, 11-18 free school that opened in September 2013. Founded by a varied and experienced group of Trustees, the school will grow to offer an exceptional education to 600 young people in the heart of Bermondsey by 2017.
The Principal and Governing Body are now looking to recruit an exceptional teacher to build on the work undertaken so far and to strengthen our English team, particularly as we begin to develop our programme of study for Key Stage 4 and lay the foundations for the opening of our sixth form in 2015.
This is a unique opportunity in a challenging, urban environment to help grow and develop this new school, inspiring our pupils to fulfil their potential. Our philosophy is simple: to have extremely high expectations of our pupils, of ourselves, and of what we can achieve.
The successful candidate will have the relevant experience for the post, the drive and enthusiasm to go "above and beyond" in all areas of school life to ensure that students and the school exceeds expectations, and the flexibility to fit in with a small but growing team. If you share our values, and are excited by the prospect of making a real contribution to a new and growing school, we want to hear from you.
