Full Job Description
The Business and Economics Department currently comprises six members of staff, including the Head of Department, having grown in recent years in response to increasing numbers of students opting for all courses offered within the department. This position becomes available to cover a maternity leave and offers the opportunity for the successful candidate to join a dedicated, supportive and experienced department, starting from September 2026 for the academic year.
The Business & Economics department is currently responsible for delivering GCSE and A level Business alongside A level Economics. Students at Denstone follow the AQA Business Specification, with good numbers of students opting to take the subject each year (currently 70 pupils study Business in the Sixth Form across six teaching groups). As an optional GCSE subject, the department offers the Edexcel Business course, with 106 pupils currently studying this subject in Years 10 and 11. AQA A Level Economics is also a popular Sixth Form option.
External exam results in recent years have been excellent, with candidates in both A level Business and Economics achieving impressive positive value-added over the past five years. Business and economics-related degrees are amongst the most common destinations for Denstone students entering higher education. Business is also the most popular optional subject at GCSE, with over 50% of candidates typically gaining a grade 7 or better in recent years. The successful applicant will play an important role in further improving standards in this subject area.
The successful candidate will be a resourceful and inspiring classroom practitioner who is able to teach a full timetable of GCSE and A-Level Business and/or Economics.
Denstone College has made significant strides in recent years, with expanding pupil numbers and a developing reputation for achievement in academic and other areas. This was confirmed by the most recent ISI inspection (November 2025).
All full-time teachers at Denstone also act as tutors within the College's thriving House system and are expected to contribute fully to the rich and diverse programme of activities and Sport enjoyed by pupils across all year groups. Life at Denstone can be very full but also immensely rewarding
