‘OUTSTANDING’ Ofsted November 2008 – “a buzz of excitement pervades the school”

 

Teacher of Latin / Classical Civilisation

 

An enthusiastic teacher of Classics is required for September 2010. This post would suit a newly qualified teacher or experienced teacher alike.

 

The subject is promoted enthusiastically throughout the school, and the department takes an active role in all opportunities for cross curricular events. Latin is extremely popular in KS3 and KS4, recruiting healthy numbers in both key stages.  Classical Civilisation is a popular choice Post-16. Students who study Classics have the opportunity of attending many trips and study days throughout the academic year including residential trips to Italy, visiting Bath and VI form lecture days in London.

 

The successful candidate will be an effective classroom practitioner and be committed to enabling all students to achieve their full potential. OFSTED 2008 commented that students have a “willingness to participate in the wide range of opportunities available to them, to show initiative and to assume responsibility”. Behaviour was found to be “exemplary”.
