We are happy to talk flexible working, where possible
You will be reporting to the Head Teacher.
The purpose of this role is to teach assigned classes and associated duties.
Stronsay Junior High School is an exciting, dynamic place to teach. You will be working with an enthusiastic and skilled team who are committed to improvement and excellence. Our school is at the heart of our community, and we take this responsibility very seriously. You will have the luxury of teaching small classes; our current school roll is 42 children and young people, including nursery, primary and up to S4 in secondary.
While you will deliver RME and ICT in the Broad General Education for this roll, we also welcome applicants with the ability to teach any subject as the school is looking to extend the range of qualifications available to our young people.
You will also have the opportunity to work with other colleagues in Orkney’s two other Junior High schools. Our pupils move to Kirkwall Grammar School for S5, and we have close links with this school. For more information about our school, please visit https://stronsayschool.weebly.com
You must be registered, or in the process of registering, with the General Teaching Council for Scotland.
The necessary qualification, experience and skills required for this role are detailed in the ‘must have’ section of the attached job profile. These criteria are used for decisions on shortlisting and appointment of applicants.
This post is a regulated role with children and requires Level 2 Disclosure with PVG scheme membership.

About this company
Orkney Islands Council
View full company profileForget images of remote islands - Orkney is well served by superb modern transport links. Forget the idea of a few people in the middle of no-where - Orkney is home to over 20,000 people. Orkney may bring to mind certain images, but the chances are they are, to say the least, a little off the mark. Sure, we're a bit off the beaten track, but the needs of our community are just the same as anywhere else. And, as a result, the opportunities we can offer you are comparable with those you'll find elsewhere. Of course, there are a few differences: for starters Orkney consists of 100,000 hectares spread over 70+ small islands (19 of which are inhabited), so, like our service users, you'll need to make the most of the transportation links which are vital to Orkney's social and economic well-being. Orkney Islands Council may be the smallest local authority in Scotland, but we can offer some big challenges. And big opportunities. This could be your big chance to make the move, and make a difference. OIC has an impact on many aspects of everyday life. With around 1,800 staff, we are also the county’s biggest employer.
