Head of Religious Education

St Michael’s Catholic School requires a Head of Department for Religious Education to join a successful department working on our Aylesbury campus. We seek a well-qualified, enthusiastic teacher who is committed to supporting pupils’ education. This role would suit an Early Career Teacher or someone with experience.

St Michael’s Catholic School is an extremely popular school that consists of two campuses across Bucks. The Aylesbury Satellite school opened in September 2018 to Year 7. A brand new state of the art building opened in September 2019.

Since opening, the campus in Aylesbury has been heavily over-subscribed. Each year the school welcomes pupils from over 30 primary schools across the region.

In September 2022, the original pioneering cohort entered Year 11. St Michael’s pupils composed the school’s mission statement of “achieve in faith with love as a community”. Young people are entering an increasingly complex world; the leaders of the future will require empathies, attributes and attitudes that will allow them to navigate and thrive in a world characterized by change. Our focus on Gospel values, strong relationships and exceptional pastoral support, provide the bedrock of our work.

At St Michael’s you will be fortunate enough to be part of a friendly learning family with modern facilities and caring professional staff. We are determined that St Michael’s will be second to none in the quality of its curriculum opportunities, teaching, learning, staff and resources. Our diverse and exciting range of opportunities for enrichment and learning outside the classroom give students the opportunity to grow in a broad range of contexts contributing to the development of happy, confident and ambitious students.

St Michael’s Catholic School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and the DBS.
