We are looking for an enthusiastic Food/Catering teacher, with excellent subject knowledge to join our school at a particularly exciting time. We would welcome applications from candidates with a Food or Sports’ Science background.
We are currently developing an innovative new curriculum which aims to reconcile recent qualification reforms with the need to retain a broad and balanced suite of subjects. Our successful candidate will have the initiative to help plan and invest in our new curriculum model, which we envisage including both new GCSEs and alternative curriculum pathways. We have also recently secured a considerable investment in terms of materials and new buildings, which are due to open in late-February 2020. We hope to mirror the expansion of our accommodation with an increase in staffing over the coming months and years. We were recently inspected by Ofsted and secured a ‘good’ judgement. Our results have improved consecutively for the past three years and we anticipate that this trend will continue with our 2019-20 results.
We offer excellent training, exciting links with other school partners and provide opportunities for personal development. We have a vibrant work place with friendly, supportive colleagues and an excellent work/life balance. Both NQTs and experienced teachers are welcome to apply. For NQTs we offer a fully paid July start date, so you can continue with your professional development, whilst familiarising yourself with our school and students.
We are an aged 11-16 mixed comprehensive with good pupils, supportive parents and an excellent staff. We welcome visits to the school and if you would like to arrange a tour please contact Ann Tyler on 01708 691441 extension 208234 or email atyler@hornchurchhigh.com We encourage you to contact our Deputy Head Teacher, Stuart McConnell at smcconnell@hornchurchhigh.com to discuss the post.
