For January 2027, Thornton College are looking to appoint a full-time Preparatory School teacher with Form Tutor responsibilities.
Our 2024 CSI Inspection judged the school to be ‘Outstanding’ in all areas and our most recent (2025) ISI Inspection commented positively on the ‘rapid’ academic progress made by students across the school and the ‘high levels of self-esteem and self-confidence' evident in the student body. We are accredited by both NACE and the British Council (International Schools Award) and in 2025 were shortlisted as Independent Girls’ School of the Year.
The successful candidate can be sure of working with a team of extremely dedicated staff in a very motivating, forward-thinking school environment. The school offer a range of staff benefits including generous fee remission for eligible children, free onsite parking, and access to our extensive grounds and facilities.
The ideal candidate will be not just enthusiastic, but deeply passionate about teaching and learning, with the vision, commitment and determination to continue raising standards for all our students. She/he will inspire and challenge our young people to enable them to develop into highly effective, independent learners and achieve their potential as individuals, both during their time at Thornton and in the future.
Salary will be commensurate with experience.
Closing Date for applications: 9th October, 2026 Interviews: w/c 12th October, 2026
The School reserves the right to appoint at any stage during the application process.
