Teacher of Economics and Business in Cambridge

Join the “Comprehensive School of the Year East Anglia” 2026. This is a fantastic opportunity to join one of the UK’s leading comprehensive schools, and an International Baccalaureate World School. As a result of the continued expansion of the College, we are looking for a passionate and dedicated Teacher of Business and Economics to join our forward-thinking and highly collaborative faculty, part of a unique, dynamic and innovative village college on the edge of Cambridge.

Part time candidates are very welcome, and well supported, as we are one of eight schools in the UK to be a Flexible Working Ambassador School.

For the right candidate, we can offer:

• A reduced teaching load for all staff
• One hour a week of subject CPD timetabled into the College day as part of your timetabled allocation, avoiding weekly twilight sessions
• A minimum of one paid ‘family day’ per year to use as you choose, with the possibility of term time leave by negotiation, and the chance to work from home by agreement
• The opportunity to access bespoke leadership training and coaching to support progression into middle or senior leadership
• A genuine commitment to wellbeing, with a strong track record in supporting positive mental health and high levels of staff retention and promotion (twice awarded the Carnegie Gold Medal)
• Subsidised access to our on-site Sports Centre and swimming pool, available for use throughout the day, as well as regular staff social events, discounted food and free coffee/tea

Impington Village College has achieved consistently excellent outcomes for the last five years. With a truly comprehensive intake, student progress is regularly in the top 5% of all non-selective schools in the country. We are also committed to the wider education of our students, with a timetabled enrichment programme for all ages as a core part of our curriculum. We are fiercely proud of our inclusive ethos, and in championing an environment in which every student is welcomed and valued.

Economics is already a well-established course in our international sixth form, with large numbers of students achieving grades that are well in excess of the world averages. It is also a popular choice for university applications and extended essays within the IB Diploma. We also offer Business Management as part of the IB Diploma and Careers Programmes, which is a very popular and successful subject.

You will be joining an innovative and collaborative faculty where staff are highly committed to professional development and to developing students’ love of Computing. You will be well supported and will potentially lead two other colleagues who teach within the department. There will also be a chance to be involved in the wider sixth form team and to deliver extra-curricular activities.
