Oulder Hill Community School and Language College is a very successful school and one of the largest in Rochdale. A multi-million pound PFI rebuilding/refurbishment was completed in Autumn 2007 to provide state-of-the-art facilities for students, staff and the community. The school serves a large area in the west of the borough. All at the school are committed to achieving the highest academic and social standards for students and to the well-being and continuous professional development of all staff. The school was graded as ‘good’ in all categories by Ofsted in October 2012 with a number of outstanding features. The school achieved record headline figures of 67% 5ACEM and high levels of progress in 2014 being significantly above national averages in the EBAC subjects for all students including pupil premium.
Due to the above position becoming vacant, the Governors are seeking to appoint a full-time, enthusiastic, well-qualified Teacher of English to an excellent department at an exciting time in the school’s development. The post is particularly suitable for an ambitious professional who is keen to undertake leadership and management responsibilities within the Faculty. The successful candidate would be joining a strong, hard-working team which is committed to achieving excellence and in which a creative approach to teaching and learning in English is strongly encouraged. Experience of teaching Cambridge IGCSE English Language is desirable but not essential.
The person appointed will have:
High standards and expectations.
Highly developed interpersonal skills
Excellent data awareness and skills
A commitment to team work
A positive outlook
The school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Appointment to this post is subject to a criminal record and background check.
