Teacher of Business

About the role

Strathallan School are seeking an enthusiastic, inspirational Teacher of Business who relates well to all children in the age range 13 – 18 years. This is a full-time, permanent role.

The successful candidate will be an enthusiastic, skilled teacher with excellent subject knowledge. An ability to teach throughout the age range from 15 to 18 (GCSEs, Highers, Advanced Highers and A Levels) will be an advantage; a lack of experience with different examination codes is less important than a willingness and ability to develop expertise and embrace new specifications with enthusiasm and energy.

We believe passionately in an all-round, balanced education and we work extremely hard to balance the main priority of academic work with the social, extra-curricular, and sporting opportunities that are on offer. This is not always easy, but it is central to what we do, and the successful candidate must be willing to engage fully with this ethos. Full-time members of staff are expected to contribute actively to our social, extra-curricular and sporting activities.

The Business Department:

This is one of the largest departments in the Senior School, with teaching from age 15 to 18. The department is well-resourced and housed in dedicated classrooms in the academic quad of the school. Pupils opt for Business at GCSE and go on to study either A Level Business or Higher and Advanced Higher Business Management in the Sixth Form. Business courses are popular at Strathallan, in the current academic year we have 90 pupils on the GCSE Business course, 45 studying Higher Business Management, 23 doing A Level Business and 14 completing Advanced Higher.
