WORKING AT FRENSHAM
One of the real differences about Frensham is our open, equal environment. There is no forced deference or demanded respect. We are all in this together. A strong basis of mutual respect and equality creates an innovative, lively place to work. We ask our teachers to be brave with their teaching and we ask our support staff to be more than just supportive. It's an environment that reflects many modern workplaces and allows our students to observe adults working inclusively together and to build their own confidence in working with adults and those in more senior positions.
TEACHING STAFF
As a progressive school, our teachers will find an exciting innovative opportunity to really engage with the students. Their role is not just to disperse knowledge, but to instill lasting learning and skills. Beyond a specific subject, our teachers engage students in cross-curricular projects and social, moral and ethical discussions and above all create genuine, lasting relationships built on mutual respect.
TEACHER OF PHILOSOPHY, RELIGION & ETHICS
Frensham Heights is seeking to appoint an inspirational and passionate Religious Studies teacher to join the thriving Philosophy, Religion and Ethics (PRE) department. PRE is a popular subject at Frensham, with a high uptake at both GCSE & A Level. A significant proportion of these students go on to study PRE-related courses at University. Teaching Religous Education in a progressive educational environment like Frensham Heights allows for a deeper level of discussion with highly motivated students. The successful candidate will be willing to teach Developments in Christian Thought (OCR) at A Level and other humanities subjects at Key Stage 3. Start date September 2023.
Completed applications should be submitted head@frensham.org

The Design & Technology department is very well equipped with two multi workshops and a dedicated design suite with computer facilities. The current uptake for both 3D Design GCSE and A Level is excellent, and it is a popular subject choice.
The school competes in Greenpower Formula 24 racing, run by the Design & Technology staff, and finished 2nd (in class) at the International Final last season.
