Teacher of Business Studies required for a September 2022 start

Tradewind Recruitment are delighted to be partnering with a highly successful co-educational comprehensive school for students aged 11-18 in the London borough of Bromley in their search for a talented September 2022 Business Studies teacher.

This is a “good” school (Ofsted 2018) with an ethos that encourages academic rigour, high expectations and a well-disciplined approach to learning. The school is very popular and has over 1300 students including the Sixth Form.

Set in the heart of the green belt and Bromley, yet within easy travelling distance to London, the school is surrounded by open spaces. The school has extensive sports and community facilities which include floodlit tennis courts, a multi-gym and a floodlit 3G pitch.

At the heart of the school are its distinctive ethos and a shared vision which are supported by the staff, students, parents and governors. This ethos and vision have helped to create a very strong caring and cohesive community based on the enduring values of high achievement, friendship, respect and compassion for others. This philosophy is supported and evidenced by the excellent relationships which exist between the staff and students. The school enjoys a low staff turnover and is able to attract and retain well qualified and committed staff. There is an excellent programme of support for both new and experienced staff.

Some of the many benefits staff enjoy are free parking, free tea/coffee at break, child-care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and the opportunity to join outstanding residential trips such as trips to Iceland, Zanzibar and the annual ski-trip.
