    Girls' Division Years)

    Required from September 2024, a dynamic and talented teacher is required on a part-time (0.8 FTE) permanent basis. The successful applicant will be a strong classroom practitioner who is able to infuse others with a love for Business Studies and Economics. Our pupils are able, inquisitive and eager to learn so creativity and a passion for Business Studies and Economics is essential. The person appointed will teach a range of classes from Year 10 upwards.

    The successful candidate will be an enthusiastic, well qualified and committed teacher of Business Studies and Economics, able to meet the rewarding challenge of inspiring our able and highly motivated pupils both inside and outside the classroom. They will be a graduate with at least a good honours degree who has flair and vision together with the necessary academic, educational and organisational experience to succeed in a post of this standing. They will be committed to the welfare and individual development of all the pupils in their care. They will be prepared to play a meaningful role in the wider life of the school.

    The successful candidate will be fully computer literate; all teachers and pupils at Bolton School have their own iPad on which they work. Good communication skills, oral and written, are also essential.

    The Department is committed to providing a challenging and stimulating learning environment whilst ensuring sufficient support and guidance for all.

    We introduced Business Studies GCSE in 2018. We follow the Edexcel specification.

    At A-Level in Business Studies we follow the Edexcel course and in Economics we follow OCR. There is a tradition of Economics and Business students choosing to continue the subject to degree level at a range of universities.

    With some 2,500 pupils, Bolton School is a large, thriving, academically selective day school. It is situated a mile or so from the town centre in a stunning 32 acre campus and is within easy reach of some of the nation's finest cities and countryside.

    In Autumn 2021, significant changes were made to the leadership structure of the School Foundation, investing the newly created position of Head of Foundation with overall responsibility. Within the new structure, there are three sections: Girls' Division, Boys' Division and Primary Division. A Head of each Division and the Head of Foundation, together with the Clerk and Treasurer, are the Foundation's Senior Officers; they are directly accountable to the Governors.

    Two adjoining and similar buildings, now attached by a state-of-the art Sixth Form Centre, house the Boys' and Girls' Senior Schools, each of which provides a traditional academic education from the age of 11 years. The Primary Division includes separate Junior Schools for boys and girls from the age of 7 and a co-educational Infant School and Nursery.

    Academic results at GCSE and A Level consistently place Bolton School amongst the top schools in the North of England and often within the top 100 nationally. The School is also renowned for its provision of a wide range of enrichment activities, which take place both during and after the school day. It serves a wide area of the North West, collecting pupils on over 20 coach routes, and provides fee assistance to a substantial proportion of the student body - one in five Senior School pupils currently receives a bursary.

    The vast majority of students progress to their first choice university and the School provides a regular supply of Sixth Formers to highly competitive courses and universities. Whilst the academic work of the two senior schools is largely separate, there are occasionally joint Sixth Form classes and there is considerable collaboration in extra-curricular activities.

    Entry to the Junior and Senior Schools is by competitive examination and interview. Interest in the School remains robust and numbers on the school roll have increased in recent years.

    Since 2022, the school has formalised its approach to evidence-based practice with the formation of the Centre for Educational Research and Innovation (CERI). The Centre facilitates both research engagement as well as supporting action research.

    Our aim is to ensure Bolton School is at the forefront of educational and pedagogical development. The CERI has a pivotal role in working alongside teachers to investigate the impact of innovation in the classroom. Foundation wide, we are well equipped to test emerging theory and to understand what will give the greatest benefit to students.

    The Centre works with staff across our Primary and Senior Schools but also looks beyond to collaborate with external institutions, both universities and other schools seeking to share and develop knowledge and understanding of what helps children and young people to learn.

    How to Apply

    We ask candidates to apply online for the position via the School's website.

    A competitive salary and benefits package are available.

    Closing date for applications: Wednesday 29 May 2024 at 9.00am

    Applications will be considered in order of receipt and should suitable candidates be found the vacancy will close earlier.

    A generous level of PPA is provided which allows members of staff, as valued professionals, to manage their time appropriately and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

    We aspire to have a diverse and inclusive workplace to reflect the diversity of our pupils and strongly encourage suitably qualified applicants from a wide range of backgrounds to apply and to join Bolton School. As an equal opportunities employer, we welcome applicants from all sections of the community and are committed to the equal treatment of all current and prospective employees. We do not condone discrimination on the basis of age, disability, sex, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, race or ethnicity, religion or belief, gender identity, or marriage and civil partnership.

    Bolton School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. The successful candidate will be required to undertake an Enhanced Criminal Records Check for Regulated Activity.
