Teacher of Theology and Philosophy; part-time

Westminster School is a busy and vibrant place to work. There is a real sense of community here as, being a boarding school, many members of staff and pupils live on site and the School’s premises are very much treated as a home away from home. All staff are encouraged to embrace the School’s day-to-day activities, whether that be attending an evening concert or a morning service in the Abbey.

Westminster School is looking for a well-qualified candidate to teach Theology and Philosophy to all year groups, with a focus on exam classes. The postholder will be expected to take a proportionate share in the teaching timetable of the department and of extra-curricular activities as directed by the Head of Theology and Philosophy. They will inspire enthusiasm in their pupils as well as helping to maintain Westminster’s very high academic standards.

Teaching experience would be beneficial, but a candidate might well be new to teaching. A degree in either Theology, TPRS (Theology, Philosophy of Religion and Religious Studies) or Philosophy is essential. The successful applicant will need to remain calm under pressure, be a well‑organised self‑starter, and work efficiently and effectively with staff, pupils, and the wider community.

This role is part‑time and permanent. Candidates must be available to teach a minimum of 0.4 across three days.

If you apply for this role and do not hear from us within three weeks of the closing date, your application has not been successful on this occasion. Please do continue to check back for future roles.
