About this Role
Radley College invites applications for a Teacher of Computer Science from September 2026. This is an exciting opportunity to be part of a friendly and collegiate school community.
The Computer Science department at Radley is young and ambitious. The AQA GCSE was launched in 2020 and this year, a new AQA A Level course was introduced. The department supports the digital onboarding and IT learning of new boys as they join as a Shell (Year 9) and continues with their introduction to Computer Science themes through the year, informing their GCSE choices.
Radley College is committed to the highest standards of professionalism and quality in our teaching and can provide opportunities for teacher training and development. We have an increasingly diverse pupil intake, and we are looking to increase diversity within our Common Room, and we therefore encourage and welcome applicants from all backgrounds. Some of our staff joined Radley straight from university, others after taking a PGCE. Some had taught in independent schools, others had not - and some had not taught before. For some, teaching has become their second (or third) career. There may be opportunities for those who don't have teaching experience to gain a PGCE during their time at Radley.
This position may come with accommodation which is free of rent, council tax and water rates and a number of other staff benefits.
The deadline for applications is 12 noon, Thursday 27 November 2025 but we reserve the right to consider applications as they arrive. If you have any questions or would like to discuss the vacancy please email the Head of Department, Alastair Vaan.
