East Durham Sixth Form, known as ED6, will be holding a special information evening for prospective staff.

The new sixth form, which will open this September, needs to employ top A Level teachers to deliver their curriculum of 21 A Level subjects.

ED6, which is based in East Durham College’s stunning £36m campus on Willerby Grove in Peterlee, County Durham is hoping to create the equivalent of 10 full time posts in year one, with this increasing when they take on their second cohort of students in 2013.

Head of ED6, Jacqui Lee, said: “East Durham Sixth Form has set its entry requirements for students higher than a number of other sixth forms in the region and will concentrate on quality rather than quantity.

“This quality also goes for the staff we will recruit too. They will need to be experienced, highly-qualified A Level teachers - people with proven track records of delivering successful student A Level passes.”

Full time staff will be offered a Scale B salary of circa £32k and the Pathway Leader roles in Maths and English will pay circa £36k. 45 days annual leave, pension, free parking, onsite childcare, free use of the gym are all part of the competitive package.

Part-time hourly paid staff positions will receive a competitive £25/hour.

Applicants will need a minimum of three years A Level teaching experience, a PGCE, a degree in a relevant subject to the one they’d like to teach - and bags of passion.

The recruitment event will be held on Tuesday 7th February, 5pm till 7pm.
