About The Role
Could you help shape a curriculum that inspires young minds and supports teachers to achieve great things together? Lift Broadlands is looking for a Head of English who cares about excellent education and wants to make a real difference in every classroom, every day.
Lift Schools have decided to tie our ambition to a concrete goal: 490. What does 490 signify? It means that by 2028, we want 90% of our GCSE pupils to be scoring grade 4 or above in English and maths. You will play a pivotal role in Lift Broadlands achieving this target, leading a team of 4 English teachers, including an ITT (Ark Teacher Training) to continue achieving high quality GCSE outcomes that change lives for all of our students, but especially the most vulnerable.
You'll guide your department with a clear vision, supporting teachers to grow and ensuring students receive engaging, knowledge-rich learning. You'll design a curriculum that's ambitious and carefully planned, and you'll create a positive environment where every child can succeed. What role could you play in shaping that future?
