Teacher of Drama
Temporary (maternity cover), Part-time (0.6 FTE) from March 2025
An inspirational Teacher of Drama is required to join this successful department from March 2025 on a part-time basis (0.6 FTE). Drama is a well-established academic subject at LEH, with impressive results in both GCSE and A level, and our extra-curricular provision is outstanding. With a rich and diverse range of drama being offered to our pupils, this lively department is centred around a state-of-the-art purpose-built theatre. Our Write the Girl project is an industry-leading initiative to create and perform original writing which foregrounds roles for women and girls.
This will be a fixed term contract for one year to cover for maternity. The successful candidate will have experience of teaching drama/theatre studies at A-level.
What we offer:
- LEH is a thriving school situated on a 24-acre site southwest of London. It has a vibrant and diverse community, and LEH students are renowned for their outstanding academic ability as well as their success across an extraordinarily wide range of co-curricular activities, including sport, music, and drama. They are ambitious, and a joy to teach.
- We have state-of-the-art facilities in all departments.
- We encourage staff to make the most of the school’s swimming pool, free lunches, on-site parking and library resources.
- A list of our attractive range of benefits can be found on the School’s website.
How to apply:
An application pack is available from the School’s website. Applications must be made on the School’s own form and should be sent to personnel@lehs.org.uk.
The closing date is noon on Wednesday, 27th November 2024.
Applications will be considered upon receipt and interviews can take place at any time. The school reserves the right to close this post at an earlier date should a successful appointment be made.
CVs will not be considered and should not be submitted.
Safeguarding Statement:
All staff working in the School will have some contact with children and will therefore be in regulated activity. Staff with teaching duties will be responsible for the pupils that they teach and may also have additional specific pastoral or other responsibilities for other pupils they do not teach. In addition, all staff will regularly interact with pupils who may seek assistance or otherwise interact with them whilst moving around the School. In all cases, the post holder’s responsibility for promoting and safeguarding the welfare of the pupils is to adhere to and ensure compliance with the School’s safeguarding policies and procedures at all times.
The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are “spent” unless they are “protected” under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children.
Lady Eleanor Holles is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
