We're working with a welcoming secondary school in Central Bristol that is looking for an enthusiastic Religious Education Teacher to join their team from September. This is a full-time position for Terms 1 and 2, with the possibility of extending into Term 3 for the right person.

You'll be teaching RE across KS3, KS4 and KS5, helping students engage with different beliefs, perspectives, and ethical discussions while building confidence in their own thinking and communication.

The school is also keen to hear from teachers who would be happy to take on a Year Tutor role. This isn't essential, but it would be a great opportunity for someone who enjoys supporting students beyond the classroom and becoming a bigger part of school life.

What’s the school like?

Supportive, inclusive, and focused on helping both staff and students thrive.

The school:

✅ Values strong relationships and positive classroom culture
✅ Encourages collaboration and sharing of best practice
✅ Offers excellent support from experienced middle and senior leaders
✅ Invests in professional development and staff wellbeing
✅ Creates an environment where teachers are trusted and valued

What we're looking for

• QTS and experience teaching Religious Education across KS3 to KS5
• Strong subject knowledge and a passion for engaging students in meaningful discussion
• A positive classroom presence and excellent communication skills
• Someone who enjoys working as part of a team and contributing to wider school life
• Willingness to take on a pastoral role as a Year Tutor would be welcomed, but isn't essential
