Are you looking for work? Are you a passionate, dedicated, and committed RE practitioner? Do you have experience teaching Citizenship?

Castle Education are working with an excellent school in the North Yorkshire area who are looking for an outstanding RE teacher, who can join their extremely successful department, on a part-time or full-time basis, starting March 2021. This is to cover a planned period of absence, and the initial end date is June term 2021, with the potential for this to be increased in the future. In terms of payment, this will be scaled to the Main Teaching Pay Scale (up to MPS6), as you will be expected to complete all planning and marking in line with the national curriculum, and teaching duties. You will be working in a truly excellent school, that is entirely focused on ensuring that the student's educational, and personal needs are catered for. Being the very center of the community, you will be working with a close-knit team, who are extremely supportive of all staff members. Having worked with this school for a number of years, I can truly say that it is an outstanding place to work, with a wonderful Humanities department. This a comprehensive 11-16 school, so experience teaching A level students is not essential for this position. You will have GCSE classes on your timetable, so we are looking for a true RE specialist who has experience teaching the new GCSE specification. Ideally, we are looking for a practitioner who has experience working towards the AQA specification, but this is by no means essential for this role. In terms of your teaching timetable, you will predominantly be teaching Key Stage 3 RE, but there will be at least one Year 10 class on the timetable.

The roles involves:

• Teaching Key Stage 3 RE
• Teaching Key Stage 4 RE
• Planning and marking in line with the national curriculum
• This is a fantastic opportunity to work with truly excellent students and staff members and make a difference with willing and enthusiastic learners

We are looking for a teacher with effective subject knowledge, and an eagerness to provide an excellent quality of education. You will be working with an excellent head of department who is willing to work hard to help develop staff members. For this reason, we would welcome applications from Newly Qualified Teachers for this position. Essential requirements: A teaching qualification (PGCE or equivalent) All work with Castle Education (bar permanent positions) requires a DBS on the update service, and collection of at least two verified references.
