We are always eager to hear from people who might be interested in teaching at Radley College. Many of our staff joined us straight from university and we have supported them through teaching qualifications. Some came to us after distinguished first (or second!) careers in industry and others join us as experienced teachers seeking a new challenge in a dynamic and caring environment. Whatever your situation, we encourage you to register for our talent pool. We will share this with the Warden and the Deputy Head (Academic), and our HR Department will be in touch if a relevant vacancy arises. We do, however, encourage you to keep an eye on this page.

Drama and Theatre are integral to the life of Radley College, with a strong tradition of excellence. The Director of Drama is responsible for ensuring the highest standards of school performance while providing experiences, opportunities, and challenges for every boy.
The role encompasses overall responsibility for all drama productions at Radley, working closely with the Head of Academic Drama. The Director will teach a reduced timetable and oversee plays, partnerships, and competitions, ensuring a diverse and inclusive programme throughout the year. While maintaining the success of Musical Theatre and a balance of classical and modern repertoire, the post-holder will have flexibility to develop their own vision for the future of Drama at Radley.
The post would suit someone already directing drama in a school environment who seeks a new challenge but there is no requirement for prior school experience. Previous involvement in professional theatre will be an advantage. The post-holder would be expected to be an outstanding director and creative influence, with an interest in a broad range of theatrical genres. They would be required to have the excellent communication and management skills to build on the strong reputation Radley has for high quality in drama. They will have the dedication to ensure the highest of standards and the enthusiasm and energy to offer a wide range of opportunities for all levels of ability.

Radley College invites applications for a Teacher of Maths to join our successful department in September 2026. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a friendly and collegiate school community.
Mathematics is extremely strong at Radley. Single Maths is always the most popular choice at A level and, currently, Further Maths is also extremely popular.

Radley College is committed to the highest standards of professionalism and quality in our teaching, and can provide opportunities for teacher training and development. We have an increasingly diverse pupil intake and we are looking to increase diversity within our Common Room. We therefore encourage and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Some of our staff joined Radley straight from university, others after taking a PGCE. Some had taught in independent schools, others had not – and some had not taught before. For some, teaching has become their second (or third) career. There may be opportunities for those who don’t have teaching experience to gain a PGCE during their time at Radley.
