An exciting opportunity to shape the future of Computer Science in a growing, innovative school.
Shireland CBSO Academy, opened in September 2023, is a unique institution established in partnership with the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra. As the country’s first state school to open in partnership with an arts organisation, our academy offers an ambitious, creative and inclusive environment where every student’s potential is nurtured and celebrated.
We are seeking a passionate and forward-thinking Teacher of Computer Science to join our growing team. This role would suit either an experienced specialist or an Early Career Teacher looking to make a real impact in a school where pupils are highly motivated and enthusiastic about studying Computer Science.
You will play a key role in building and shaping the subject, contributing to the development of an engaging, modern curriculum and embedding strong foundations as we prepare students for more advanced study. You will also be responsible for delivering the subject at KS4, ensuring pupils are inspired, challenged and well-prepared for examination success.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
