Working With Us

The Cavendish School is a great place to work. The staff here are friendly and work well together as a team.

We enjoy a supportive environment, pleasant working conditions and delicious school lunches, as well as enormous job satisfaction delivering an excellent all-round education to our pupils. As a result vacancies seldom arise! Should there be an opportunity to join our team, details of the vacancy and how to apply will be posted on this page.

We seek an enthusiastic Class Teacher to join the staff of our unique, friendly and highly regarded GSA & IAPS School from September 2026, on a 1-year fixed term contract. This position will likely be within KS2, but we have flexibility for the right candidate to be based in other year groups.

We have an outstanding reputation and we therefore require a highly skilled teacher, motivated to providing pupils with high-class care and development. We will expect you to encourage independence and curiosity, and provide a secure and stimulating environment in which children are motivated to reach their potential while contributing to the girls’ pastoral care.

Visits by prior arrangement are welcome.

I feel so lucky to have been teaching here for… more years than I like to say... I’ve seen some changes, of course, but the important things have stayed the same.
