Teacher of Drama

Teachers main pay scale plus London fringe
Required for September 2018 or January 2019 • Maternity cover

IMAGINE walking into school and seeing a dinosaur – or a plane – or a badger. The Langley Academy is not just another school; it is a new way of learning. As the UK’s first museum school, The Langley Academy has a museum within the building. Here you are encouraged to use your imagination to create new ways to ignite students’ desire to learn.

We are ideally situated, only minutes from the M4 at Junction 5 and the M25, and with excellent rail links to Central London. If you chose to live here, renting is cheaper than in Central London, yet you are in town quickly. Windsor, Marlow or Henley are close and if you enjoy weekend travelling it takes about 15 minutes to Heathrow. We border Buckinghamshire, with no less than 100,000 acres which are designated Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty – including a substantial part of the magnificently wooded Chiltern Hills. Whether you are into the outdoors or want to be close to London, working here is ideal.

We are seeking to appoint an outstanding and inspirational Teacher of Drama to cover one year’s maternity cover. This post would suit an NQT or an experienced teacher who is passionate about the delivery of drama education to young people and the staging of productions in schools.

To be successful, you will have a proven commitment to the study and practice of theatre in schools and a degree in Drama, or a related subject. You will also have excellent organisational and interpersonal skills.

The Langley Academy has a multi-cultural environment, which can be reflected in all subjects.

If you are an energetic team player who is empathetic, creative and innovative, with a passion for Drama we look forward to hearing from you. The successful candidate will be part of our exciting new Trust working with two primary schools as well as the secondary.
