About The Role

Teacher of Geography

Fixed term or permanent role, full-time – to start 1^st January 2027

Closing date for applications: Midnight on Thursday 24^th September 2026

Interviews will be Thursday 1^st October 2026

We are seeking to appoint a qualified and enthusiastic Teacher of Geography to join a friendly, thriving department teaching pupils who achieve excellent results at GCSE and A level.

Geography is a popular option for pupils at both GCSE and A level, and we are proud that almost 60% of pupils gained a 7 or higher at GCSE (A-A**), double the average for our examination board. We place a high value on learning outdoors and fieldtrips - a willingness to get involved, and add value to our trip offerings, is essential!

Typically, pupils leave the School in Year 13 for Russell Group universities, with a number of pupils making Oxbridge applications and apprenticeship applications each year. We are looking to appoint a new team member who has a background in Physical Geography and the ability and desire to teach to A level and prepare for competitive universities.

The successful candidate will be a dynamic and confident Geography teacher and will have vision and drive with the ability and determination to maintain the very high educational standards for which the Department is already known. Excellent communication skills are essential for this role – imparting their own passion for the subject to pupils, as well as working collaboratively with the Department, wider staff body and liaising with parents.

Clifton High School is a busy and thriving community in which the wider contributions of staff to co-curricular activities are highly valued. The ability to lead clubs and activities is vital, as is the participation in the pastoral support system of the School. An interest in PE and Games is desirable, though is not essential.

This post is offered as either a fixed term post (for two terms) or a permanent post; this will be discussed with candidates at interview.

Completed application forms should include a suitability statement to illustrate how the requirements of the post will be met.

The salary for this role will be Teachers’ Main or Enhanced Pay Scale, depending on experience.

This year the range is £33,317 (CHS1) to £38,096 (CHS 3)
