The Governing Body of St Paul’s School for Girls is seeking to appoint an inspirational Catholic RE Teacher to commence September 2025.
We seek an outstanding practitioner, with the ability to teach the delivery of RE at Key Stages 3, 4 and 5, in our highly successful Catholic School. Our RE Section 48 Inspection in October 2021, described St Paul’s as an outstanding Catholic School.
We are looking for a dedicated and committed teacher to work with this outstanding team, to drive academic progress in Religious Education and take a key role in supporting and developing the Catholic life of the school. The successful candidate may be a newly qualified or an experienced teacher.
St Paul’s is a Catholic comprehensive school for girls aged 11-19. Top 1% in the Country!
This means that our girls scored nearly one and a half grades higher than others in their GCSEs in all subjects than students of a similar ability nationally.
