Teacher of Philosophy, Ethics and Religion (PER)

Immanuel College · Bradford · Bradford

Job description

Immanuel College is an 11-18 Church of England Academy, proud to be part of the Bradford Diocesan Academies Trust (BDAT). Situated in Idle, in the north of Bradford, we have been serving our local communities for over twenty years.

Our Christian ethos, rooted in perseverance, character, and hope, shapes everything we do. “Immanuel” means God with us, and our motto All God’s Children reflects our belief that every student deserves to flourish. Our most recent SIAMS inspection recognised us as an outstanding church school, highlighting the “positive relationships at all levels” that enable both students and staff to thrive.

In May 2024, Ofsted judged us to be a Good school. We are proud of our strong record of GCSE and A level success, with excellent progress made by students of all abilities and backgrounds. Most of our students choose to continue their journey with us into our inclusive and supportive Sixth Form.

To further enhance our provision, we were delighted to open a state-of-the-art post-16 building in September 2025. This new facility provides modern, purpose-built spaces for learning, collaboration, and personal development, and reflects our commitment to offering an outstanding Sixth Form experience for our students.

Our staff are at the heart of our success. Teachers and support staff at Immanuel College have high aspirations for every student and are deeply committed to helping them reach their potential. In return, we place great value on staff wellbeing, actively reducing unnecessary workload wherever possible. We offer a robust performance management system, alongside a comprehensive and bespoke programme of CPD, to ensure colleagues feel supported in their professional growth.

We are looking for a passionate and committed Teacher of Philosophy, Ethics and Religion, with the highest expectations for every student, to join a very successful department. We welcome applications from ECTs as well as more experienced teachers. If you believe that you are the right person to fill the role and that your values are aligned with ours, then we look forward to receiving your application.
