Summary

From September 2024 or by January 2025 we require a PE Teacher to join our enthusiastic and successful sports department.

Detail

Godstowe School is an independent day and boarding school for girls age 3 to 13. We have approximately 400 girls with a community of about 80 boarders from the UK as well as other countries around the world, adding an important international and multicultural dimension to the school.

We are recruiting for a PE Teacher who can contribute across our school sports, and a good knowledge of Lacrosse would be of great benefit. An important part of the role is working with our enthusiastic and successful teams by coaching, umpiring/refereeing and attending fixtures. This will involve some work after school and on Saturdays, driving licence with D1 (minibus) entitlement would be an advantage.

Godstowe has a fine sporting pedigree and excellent facilities including a 25m Indoor Swimming Pool, a Sports Hall, four floodlit Netball courts / Tennis courts, a Floodlit Lacrosse pitch / Athletics field and a dance studio. Fixtures are played against many local schools, and highlights of the calendar include the annual ski trip and biennial Lacrosse Tour of the USA.

The main school sports are Lacrosse, Hockey, Netball, Cricket, Tennis, Athletics, Swimming and Gymnastics. In addition there are opportunities for Golf, Riding, Football, Lifeguard Training and Judo among others.

This is a full-time role. Among other benefits are a competitive salary, pension, discount on school fees for eligible children and meals in term time.

Godstowe is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants will be required to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post including checks with past employers and the Disclosure and Barring Service.
