Please contact Mrs Clare Peck at cpeck@twgsboys.kent.sch.uk

Are you passionate about English?

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a passionate and talented English teacher to join our team. This role has the potential of getting involved in Classics at KS4 level for the right person.

The English department is well established at Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys. Staff have a wealth of experience and interests, which bring many dimensions to provision of excellent lessons as well as skills and support for a new colleague! We have enjoyed excellent results at both GCSE and A Level and a concept-focused Key Stage 3 proves a popular launch pad for strong progress.

A healthy approach to broader, innovative ways to enhance learning is encouraged, and trips add to this!

The successful applicant will have a passion for their subject and have an understanding of the strategies required to motivate and inspire students who can contribute to an excellent team achieving equally impressive results. Above all else, the successful candidate should be enthusiastic about their work with young people and have a genuine concern for their development as individuals.

The role would be suitable for an experienced secondary teacher seeking a new challenge or possibly a recently qualified teacher looking to gain experience in a supportive school.

Tunbridge Wells Grammar School for Boys is one of the largest boys' grammar schools within the country. In late 2021, we benefited from a multi-million pound investment, which resulted in a brand-new sports building at our Tunbridge Wells campus and the opening of our Sevenoaks campus. 

Staff benefit from a positive working environment, with strong support for professional development and specialist teaching rooms. We aim for high standards and the pursuit of academic excellence, helping every student to reach their full potential through the development of skills, concepts and knowledge, within the framework of a caring community. Relationships between staff and students are based on trust, mutual respect and a determination to succeed. 

Please note that we will only accept CVs that are accompanied by an application form (see below). We shall review applications as we receive them  so apply early to avoid delay! We reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive sufficient applications for the role.
