Highgate is looking for an enthusiastic and inspiring teacher of Classics to join this highly successful department from September 2022. The position would suit an experienced teacher or an ambitious and creative entrant to the profession. 

Applicants will be expected to teach Latin (and, ideally, Greek) to A Level and should have a suitable undergraduate degree from a university with an excellent reputation for Classics. Applicants should demonstrate a profound and continuing academic interest in their subject and an enthusiasm for sharing this passion with pupils and colleagues. The successful candidate will have a strong commitment to professional development, an enthusiasm for learning and a willingness to experiment, as well as the ability to reflect deeply on their practice. A genuine interest in the School’s academic extension programme will be an added recommendation. 

The School has considerable experience and success in guiding unqualified entrants to the profession through induction and into established teaching and leadership positions at the school. For all teachers new to Highgate, regardless of experience, there is a strong and supportive framework of induction. The role includes opportunities to contribute to the pastoral and co-curricular life of the school, both of which are valued highly at Highgate.
