TEACHER OF DRAMA -with the willingness to teach Music

MPR/UPR

Hours: Full time/ Part time

Required: September 2021

We are looking for a well-qualified, committed and enthusiastic Teacher of Drama to join our successful 11-18 comprehensive school. This is an excellent opportunity for a talented teacher to join a strong and successful Performance and Creativity Faculty. Applications are welcome from NQTs or experienced teachers. Visits to the school are welcome, by prior arrangement.

Performance and Creativity Faculty

The faculty benefits from having a large Drama Centre with standard lighting system and dimmer board. There is a small office and a large cupboard for costumes and props. There are also rostra blocks, small staircases, flats, a wide variety of texts, and a projector. The second Drama teaching room adjoins the school hall which has a traditional school stage, equipped with a full lighting and sound system.

Drama plays a significant role in the life and ethos of the school. It is taught as a standalone subject throughout Key Stages 3, is a GCSE option at KS4 and an A Level option at KS5. Our students follow the AQA specifications at both GCSE and A Level.

To join The Henry Box School is to join a family – staff and pupils who have the courage to do things differently, if that’s what it takes.

Here we think deeply about how we can have the biggest impact on pupils. In a world where the algorithms of life give us more of the same, we believe education has the role to give children something different. We continually ask ourselves the following five questions:

• Are we securing equity?
• Is our leadership driving school improvement?
• Is our curriculum irresistible?
• Are we research informed?
• Are we deploying resources effectively?

All schools in our Trust have a culture of compassion underpinned by high expectations and understanding. We have three rules: ready, respectful and safe. We are a truly inclusive organization and passionately believe that every child has a right to mainstream education.
