Teacher of Economics
- Job Summary
-
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a Teacher of Economics to start in August 2026.
The Department
Economics is one of the highest performing departments in the school and one of the single most popular subjects at A-level. The department currently consists of five members of staff and there are over 200 pupils studying the subject across the Sixth Form. We follow the Edexcel specification and the results in recent years have been excellent, achieving 94% A* to A in both 2024 and 2025 exam series.
The department also has a comprehensive Oxbridge programme, with much recent success in this area, achieving thirteen offers in the past four years. Pupils participate in various competitions (e.g. they have won the IEA Budget Challenge Competition twice) and they also run the Brighton College Economics Society.
The renowned Keynesian economist, Lord Robert Skidelsky, is a former pupil and he was also Chairman of Governors at the College until 2016.
Role SpecificationThe successful candidate will be expected to teach Economics across the curriculum at A-level. An ability to contribute towards the department’s extension programme, including a willingness to support pupils with applications to leading universities (including Oxford and Cambridge), will be a distinct advantage.
All teachers within the department are expected to assist in the development of Schemes of Work, through the creation of teaching resources and the compilation of content for our Microsoft OneNote Notebooks and SharePoint.
Additionally, all teachers at Brighton College are expected to contribute to the school’s pastoral system, generally as a tutor in one of our 16 houses (of which six are boarding houses and ten are day).
There is also an expectation that all teachers will contribute to the cocurricular life of the school, through the extensive Games programme, and/or through the leadership of one of over 100 school societies.
Candidates are encouraged to point to interests and enthusiasms as part of their application. All staff have the opportunity to contribute to our Masterclass programme; this is a series of weekly lessons designed to celebrate the enjoyment of learning, focusing on an area of personal academic or cultural interest. These have included subjects such as Magical Realism, Cuisine and Culture and Great Debates in History.
All teachers joining Brighton will have the benefit of guidance by an experienced mentor, whose role it will be to provide support during their probationary period. Thereafter, all teachers are expected and supported to participate in continuous professional development, throughout their time at the College.
