Head of Classics

We are seeking a well-qualified and dynamic teacher to lead the continued development of Classics in this busy and successful school. Classics at Woldingham is a thriving and popular subject area. The department is committed to instilling a love of the ancient world through high-quality, engaging teaching that fosters intellectual curiosity and cultural awareness.

Latin is taught to all students in Years 7 before becoming an optional subject in Year 8. Latin is offered both on- and off-timetable at GCSE (Eduqas), and outcomes are consistently high. The successful candidate will play a central role in delivering an inspiring Latin curriculum across key stages 3&4.

Woldingham is a happy and successful Catholic boarding and day school for girls aged 11 to 18 and is firmly established as one of the top girls' independent schools in the UK, outperforming many schools that are far more selective in their admissions process. Central to this achievement is Woldingham's academic enrichment and extra-curricular programme, pastoral support and caring community. Close to London, yet in an outstandingly beautiful rural setting, Woldingham has a strong community and culture building on a proud heritage that stretches back 180 years. We are committed to an exciting future that is underpinned by fresh ideas, an innovative spirit and state-of-the-art facilities.

The Woldingham community is a rich one in which many different backgrounds and cultures are represented and many different languages spoken. This diversity is valued and respected and we are keen to welcome applications from all applicants that feel that they meet the requirements of the role, regardless of their background and culture. All job applicants will be considered solely on their ability to do the job.
