School Type: Mixed secondary academy
Salary: Competitive, dependent on experience
A mixed secondary academy in Hitchin requires an RE Teacher for a two-term temporary appointment.
You will teach Religious Education at KS3 and KS4, covering religious beliefs, practices, ethical issues, philosophy and contemporary debates. The school wants students to develop accurate knowledge while learning how to evaluate different viewpoints respectfully.
The successful teacher will be confident leading discussion, modelling strong written responses and preparing students for examination-style questions. You should be able to create a calm classroom in which students feel comfortable exploring sensitive or complex topics.
