This position is full time, permanent and to commence in September 2025

Our School is a co-educational 11-18 secondary school with around 1,000 students on roll, including 300 students in the Sixth Form.  Our daily routines and educational practice are rooted in the twin values of Dignity and Respect.  We take a holistic view of what it means to be educated and encourage the development of character, citizenship and the importance of building trusting and honest relationships.  Our school is orderly, but joyful; it is disciplined and also recognises the unique gifts and talents of individual students.

We are one of the top performers nationally for value added and our standards and expectations are high.  We were inspected by Ofsted in December 2021 and re-designated Outstanding in every category.  The report highlights the shared emphasis that we place on personal development and academic success.  The opening line encapsulates our educational vision: “Waddesdon Church of England school changes pupils’ lives for the better.”.  We are equally proud of our links with further education and employers and see our role as co-partners in a young person’s education.

Our English department consists of 5 experienced teachers and results have been consistently high at both GCSE and A Level over the past few years.

You would be joining a supportive school community where our students are a pleasure to teach! We offer extremely competitive rates of pay and excellent CPD opportunities.
