English Teacher - Dudley - January 2026

A large, well-respected 11–18 secondary school in Dudley is seeking a passionate Teacher of English to join its thriving English faculty from January 2026 .

The school serves a diverse, ambitious community and has a Good Ofsted rating with several elements noted as “highly effective” , including behaviour, teaching quality, and leadership visibility. The English department is a genuine strength of the school, with consistently strong GCSE results and an increasingly popular A-Level programme.

The Role

You will teach English across KS3–KS5 , contributing to curriculum development, enrichment, and whole-school literacy. The department values a balanced approach: structured, well-sequenced lessons combined with creativity, discussion and purposeful reading routines.

You’ll join a friendly, collaborative team that meets weekly to share resources, moderate assessments and embed consistent routines.

The School Environment

The school has benefitted from significant investment in recent years, including:

  • A newly refurbished English corridor with spacious classrooms
  • Interactive screens and visualisers in every teaching room
  • A large library and reading hub used heavily for intervention and enrichment
  • A strong pastoral system that supports teaching staff extremely well

Behaviour is consistently calm and well-managed, supported by a centralised behaviour policy and excellent SLT presence around the site.

You Will Bring

  • QTS in English (or related discipline)
  • Strong subject knowledge in Literature and Language
  • A commitment to inclusive, high-quality teaching
  • Ability to build positive relationships with students

Why Join?

  • Excellent CPD and leadership development pathways
  • Supportive, well-structured department
  • Very manageable workload expectations
  • Opportunities to lead extracurricular activities such as debating, reading groups or creative writing

If you’re an English Teacher looking for a stable, well-led school where you can make real impact, we’d love to hear from you.
