The postholder will be required to teach at all levels up to Advanced Higher and a willingness to contribute to the school’s extra-curricular programme is also essential. Remuneration will be on the ESMS A scale (£34,508 - £49,977 per annum) and is dependent on qualifications and experience.

 

Staff are offered a range of benefits including: a generous holiday allowance, enhanced sick pay, family friendly policies, use of the ESMS swimming pool and fitness room outside school hours, membership of the ESMS Discount and Benefits Scheme, including a range of discounts at 130,000 retail and entertainment locations. 

 

ESMS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. Applicants must undergo child protection screening, including checks with past employers and Disclosure Scotland.

 

We will interview on a rolling basis over the summer, so early applications are encouraged.
