What skills and experience we're looking for

If you think life at John Colet School would suit you, then we are looking for an ambitious, enthusiastic teacher to join us from 2025. This post is suitable for an ECT or a more experienced teacher.

As a Business Studies teacher you will be in a supportive team who has a culture of sharing teaching strategies and resources. Our Business Studies department is well resourced with a wealth of powerpoints and resources available. There are two dedicated rooms and students have their own chromebooks.

The successful candidate will be able to teach throughout the age and ability range including AQA GCSE Business Studies, taught over 3 years and Post-16 the AQA A Level Business Studies, with the opportunity to teach Financial Studies, a personal finance course offered at level 3.

"I've always enjoyed Business Studies, as it is the perfect blend of maths, essay writing and gaining knowledge of the real world. For both A levels and GCSE, I won't lie - the subject can be trickier than people think, but it's been great having an enthusiastic teacher who is willing to give one on one support, especially when it comes to learning and exam technique. Group and individual work has been beneficial as there's always arguments to be discussed on case studies, plus there are always opportunities to get creative throughout the curriculum, including the Cadburys Competition we had in Year 10. It's fun bringing my theory knowledge into a practical perspective, like in Year 12 for the Young Enterprise Competition, when our team won the Technology award for our product in our region. I have no regrets choosing this subject, not just because of the learning but also the memories made along the way." LP student in Year 13.

From Challenge Partners peer review March 2024:

• ‘Students describe the school as ‘welcoming’, strongly echoed by new staff and students who quickly felt ‘fully part of the community.'
• ‘Staff find that induction and whole school professional development programmes directly inform practice that support both staff and students. One teacher explained how ‘literacy training has improved how I teach languages to students with lower reading ages.’ One member of staff stated that since joining JCS they have ‘become a better teacher.’
• New staff compare JCS to their previous schools and state that facilities at the school are excellent, ‘Stuff works!’
• They describe leaders as approachable with strong communication and a focus on well-being. As a result, new staff feel settled and ready to work quickly, with one concluding, ‘My life is better since joining John Colet.’
• Teachers drive the ethos for students to thrive through their relationships, support and how they advocate for student needs. A wide range of students feel that their teachers are the most important aspect of the school. As a result, students self-regulate whilst working independently, eager to complete projects and extended activities.

What the school offers its staff

The John Colet School is a caring school where we pursue academic excellence, celebrate success and develop students to become active members of our school and wider community. We are constantly striving to improve. Other reasons staff enjoy working at John Colet School (Ofsted rated – good) include;
