Job overview
This is a fantastic opportunity for an individual to join and lead a very successful Department, within a very successful school.
Bonus Pastor is an incredibly positive place to work, with a vibrant staff and excellent GCSE results. We moved two years ago into brand new ‘state of the art’ buildings, with a digital environment and a super new Drama Studio with an immersive ICT screen and a range of lighting and sound equipment. Drama GCSE examination results are outstanding with between 80% of students receiving a C grade and above.
The Department runs lots of educational visits, has a very strong partnership with The Old Vic Theatre and puts on lots of exciting and innovative productions; all of which are aimed at enhancing learning. Drama is popular with students in terms of its exciting learning on a day to day basis and there is a high take up of students at GCSE.
This year Ofsted judged the school as ‘Good with outstanding features’, where ‘Students’ behaviour is outstanding and relationships between teachers and students are very strong’.
This post is suitable for a Drama teacher who has the capability of leading a Department of two other teachers and who is seeking promotion, or an existing Subject Leader seeking to broaden their experience.

About Bonus Pastor Catholic College

Principal
Jonathan Ronan BSc (Hons)
Values and vision
The Catholic faith is fundamental to Bonus Pastor Catholic College’s work. The school day begins with an act of worship, either in tutor groups or in year group and house assemblies. Prayer time in tutor groups is often organised and led by the students themselves, and all these times of prayer are related to the school’s "theme of the week".
The secondary school’s lay Chaplain is available to meet with students on a one-to-one basis, and provides additional pastoral support for all members of the school. Bonus Pastor Catholic College is proud of the fact that British values are at the heart of its ethos. Areas in which these values are expounded and embedded include citizenship days, the curriculum, the house system, house assemblies, and links with other institutions.
Ofsted report
“Students’ behaviour is outstanding. They conduct themselves with courtesy and show generosity towards others and commitment to achieving their very best. They are excellent ambassadors for the college. Students feel completely safe within the college. The governing body, headteacher and senior team share a strong desire to raise students’ achievement through improved teaching. The governing body is experienced and skilled and provides strong challenge and support on behalf of parents and the college community.” (September 2017)
"The school’s values of respect, responsibility and ambition are reflected in everything the school does. These values describe the day-to-day experience of every pupil perfectly. Pupils recognise this and said that the school is a community in which they are kept safe."
"The school is expertly led and managed. High expectations are the norm, for pupils’ academic achievements and personal development and for maintaining high levels of attendance. This is recognised by parents, who greatly appreciate the school’s endeavour. The governing body contributes strongly to the school’s work, checking carefully that pupils continue to be well served."
