For September 2023, Cheltenham College seeks an outstanding teacher of Sports Science to lead the Sports Science Department.

This is a a very popular subject at the school and the first time a teaching vacancy has come up in the department in 10 years.

In the “classroom”, to better support the pupils, the department collects practical video footage for both GCSE and A Level pupils which creates more time for practical and theoretical learning within the subject. The practical element supports the theoretical specification giving each pupil a variety of learning opportunities. Beyond the core curriculum, pupils learn the importance and value of all that sport offers.

Aside from being an outstanding classroom practitioner, the postholder will be responsible for ensuring that, within the department, teaching and learning are excellent, specifically through lesson observation, appraisal, continuing professional development.

Full details of the role can be found in the job description.
