English Teacher Permanent Opportunity (September Start or Sooner)

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a dedicated and passionate English Teacher to join a forward-thinking secondary school on a permanent basis from September, with the possibility of starting earlier for the right English Teacher, whether on a supply or permanent basis.

This is a full-time role, teaching Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4, ideal for an English Teacher who is enthusiastic about inspiring young people and delivering engaging, high-quality lessons. The school is well supported by excellent transport links from Shrewsbury, Telford, and Wolverhampton.

The Role

As an English Teacher, you will:

  • Plan and deliver engaging and differentiated English lessons across KS3 and KS4

  • Inspire pupils to develop strong literacy skills and a love of English

  • Assess, monitor, and track pupil progress, providing constructive feedback

  • Contribute to curriculum planning and the wider English department

  • Maintain high expectations for behaviour, achievement, and inclusion

  • Work collaboratively with colleagues and support staff

The Ideal Candidate

The successful English Teacher will have:

  • Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or equivalent

  • Experience teaching English at KS3 and KS4 (ECTs welcome to apply)

  • Strong subject knowledge and a passion for English education

  • Excellent classroom management and communication skills

  • Commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children

This role would suit an English Teacher seeking a long-term, stable position within a supportive school environment, as well as an English Teacher who may be available sooner on a supply basis before transitioning to permanent.

If you are an enthusiastic English Teacher looking for your next opportunity, this role offers both professional development and the chance to make a real impact from day one.
