Description

This is an exciting opportunity to lead the Economics and Business Studies Department at one of the most successful schools in England.

We seek an enthusiastic graduate. High energy levels and good inter-personal skills will be essential.

Set in a beautiful 50-acre Surrey site, the School enjoys excellent facilities and an aspirational learning environment.

Recognised by HM Chief Inspector of Schools as one of England's finest non-selective schools, Gordon's has circa 950 students including 270 residential boarders and a thriving sixth form.

In 2023, the percentage of students achieving five or more GCSE grades 9-4, including English and mathematics, was 96%. The A*-C pass rate at A-Level was 86%, with 65% of the grades A*-B. These results rank Gordon's amongst the top non-selective schools in England for progress and attainment.

Massively over-subscribed, Gordon's size ensures that every pupil is well known and nurtured as an individual.

The School has a very strong emphasis on academic standards, self-discipline and traditional values and aims to be much more than just outstanding examination results, providing abundant opportunities outside the classroom and exceptional pastoral care.
