To start 10th August 2026.Applications are welcome from current probationers pending attainment of full registration with the GTCS. Preston Lodge High School is a non-denominational secondary school serving the communities of Cockenzie, Port Seton, Longniddry and Prestonpans. Our roll is currently 1062, and the school is very easily commutable from Edinburgh. In our recent inspection, the strong relationships between staff and students, our calm learning culture and the pride students have in their school were all highlighted. However, a number of important improvement needs were identified, too, and we are now working hard to address them. We are finalising and implementing new school improvement priorities, we are reviewing our approach to meeting the learning needs of all students, and we are addressing attainment in S3, and in national qualifications, to make existing improvements more significant and consistent. Our motivated staff, along with our students, parents, carers, and the community we serve, are working hard to further improve all aspects of our school, and staff love working at Preston Lodge. We are a happy school, and new staff report very positively on our school’s culture and ethos. At a time of great uncertainty in education, we work together to provide the best education possible for all of our students. Our work is focused on continuously improving our approach to classroom practice, developing student and staff learning, improving our curriculum offer and improving attainment with a keen focus on our equity gap. Although we have very strong Positive Destinations data, we are working hard to further diversify our Senior Phase, to better meet the needs of all students. We are increasingly exploring alternative awards for young people. For example, we are a big user of the Open University's Young Applicants in Scottish Schools scheme and have an increasing number of students participating in Youth Achievement Awards - all S3 students now undertake the Bronze Award of this scheme. We have recently introduced four one-year in-school Foundation Apprenticeships into our Senior Phase, and we have introduced Home Rooms into our S1 Curriculum. RAAC-related building disruption forced us to completely rethink our S1 curriculum. Our vibrant, friendly and inclusive Humanities team are a key part of learning at Preston Lodge High School. In recent years we have been central to curricular developments at the school and as a result we have introduced a number of new courses to ensure the academic needs of all of our students are being met. Our strong team is always striving to help students achieve. This has led to our staff developing positive relationships with students and providing a safe place for students to learn. We are now looking to recruit an innovative teacher to allow us to further develop the Geography contribution to Preston Lodge High School. Applications will be accepted from those wishing to be considered for this role on a part-time basis. If you are applying for this role on a part time basis, please tell us in the Read Less
