Job overview
.8 contract, plus or minus .2
Teaching one-to-one and in small groups
We seek to appoint an inspiring and well-qualified English teacher to join our forward thinking and highly successful English department from September 2015. You will teach on a one-to-one basis, or with small groups, with students needing extra support with English, across the age range, although the majority of students will be below A Level. Some of this teaching will be with regular students throughout the year, some will be on a more ad hoc basis to offer temporary English support as necessary to students needing to boost their skills. This may at times equate to a full-time equivalent post, but may fluctuate. Flexibility is, therefore, required!
The successful candidate will have a good honours degree, preferably in English but other disciplines will be considered. We require an outstanding practitioner able to promote innovative and adventurous teaching and enthuse students with a lively passion for English while encouraging them to become independent learners.

Bootham School is a leading co-educational day and boarding school located in the beautiful and historic city of York. Set across two sites, it is home to more than 670 students aged 3-19. The senior school occupies 10 acres in the heart of the city, a few minutes walk from York Minster. Bootham Junior School is just over a mile away, on a purpose-built 10-acre site.
Bootham continues to build on its national reputation as a school with a difference and numbers across both schools are at an historic high. Founded by Quaker families, the School values academic rigour and public duty and encourages students to be creative thinkers, peacemakers and confident humanitarians.
Academic standards are strong and leavers gain entry to the UK’s leading universities including Cambridge, Oxford, Durham, UCL, King’s College, Central St. Martin’s and the Royal College of Music. The School also has a well-earned reputation for producing future engineers and students are regular holders of the prestigious Arkwright Scholarship.
The award-winning enrichment programme allows students to choose from more than 100 activities. All teaching staff participate in this programme, and some may lead in sport, the Duke of Edinburgh scheme or on the many local trips and global expeditions which are a feature of Bootham life.
Our staff can expect to enjoy excellent facilities and benefits. We welcome applications from enthusiastic professionals who seek not just a workplace but a community based on dedication, camaraderie, and purpose.
