St George’s is a thriving independent boarding and day school of 270 girls aged 11-18 around 45% of whom are boarders (full, weekly and flexi) and with a Sixth Form of approximately 80 pupils. St George’s offers an ambitious, connected and future-facing education tailored for pupils to realise their potential both at school and in fulfilling adult lives ahead.
Awarded ‘excellent across the board’ in its November 2022 ISI inspection, the School is a place where girls flourish academically, creatively, physically and morally, a place where risks can be taken, lessons are learnt and challenges are welcome.
We are a welcoming school with a warm sense of community. Visitors are impressed by our facilities within a beautiful setting and the ambition of our educational provision.
Our unique extended day and flexible boarding model allows all girls the time and space to foster confidence, independence and academic curiosity providing a future-facing education exclusively for girls in a world not yet designed for girls and introduces them to contemporary subjects and topics, through speakers, workshops, classes and visits.
St George’s offers an education that is grounded, relevant and fosters employability. The school operates as an Educational Trust administered by a Board of Governors, is a member of the Girls’ Schools Association (GSA), Boarding Schools Association (BSA) ISBA, AGBIS and is ISC accredited.
We require two full-time Teachers of PE to provide maternity cover with effect from January 2026. It is expected that the first post will commence in January 2026 and it is expected that the second post will commence in April 2026.
The School’s aim is to encourage pupils to achieve their goals and potential, to welcome challenges, to be inspirational and adventurous with their physical movement and to continue their sporting activities beyond St George’s.
Therefore, we are looking for two enthusiastic teachers of PE to provide inspirational teaching and coaching to PE in the curriculum and to deliver a prominent, enjoyable and successful co-curricular sport programme to pupils at the School.
Both posts are Fixed Term Contracts to cover maternity leave and it is expected that each contract will be for at least two terms.
The successful candidates will be expected to be flexible in their approaches to the roles. Both posts involve supporting after School fixtures and working on Saturdays, with a weekday off in lieu.
