Teacher of Business, Economics and Politics

We are seeking a part-time colleague (0.6FTE) to join the BEP (Business Studies, Economics and Politics department). The ability to teach Business Studies to Key Stage 5 is essential and the ability/willingness to teach Politics or Economics in the Sixth Form would also be highly desirable. Business Studies is an extremely popular option at both GCSE and A-Level and we have very strong uptake in both Politics and Economics at A-Level. Outcomes in all three subjects are historically very high, which is something the department is extremely proud of and something we seek to build on.

We are seeking a teacher who can make each pupil's experience of Business Studies at Kings Priory School truly exceptional. We are looking for a dynamic, adaptable and enthusiastic teacher to work alongside our hardworking, talented and dedicated team. The successful candidate will have excellent subject knowledge and a willingness to participate in the wider life of the school, in all of its forms.

We welcome applications from colleagues at all stages of their career, confident that our school will provide a supportive environment where learners want to learn and relationships between staff and pupils are second to none. If you are an outstanding teacher with the ability to inspire, motivate, challenge and support pupils to ensure they make exceptional progress, we would love to hear from you.
