Vacancies at our Prep School
Join Clarence House Preparatory School (C.H.P.S.), a high-achieving, knowledge-led preparatory school for girls aged 7-11, based in Hampton Hill, Middlesex, specialising in S.T.E.M. subjects, with a science laboratory and Makerspace.
As well as being an enthusiastic teacher, you should also support the following key ideas:
Knowledge-Led Curriculum
At C.H.P.S. every teacher makes factual knowledge a priority. C.H.P.S. teachers understand that thinking well requires knowing facts, and that critical thinking processes such as reasoning and problem solving are intimately intertwined with factual knowledge that is stored in long-term memory. Pupils are quizzed about these facts at the beginning of every lesson. Pupils are tested on these facts at the end of each topic. Pupils are examined on these facts at the end of the year and – our exams are cumulative: we expect Year Six pupils to retain what they learnt in Year Three.
Grit
“Grit is perseverance and passion for long-term goals.” Angela Duckworth
At C.H.P.S. every teacher promotes the concept that developing passion and perseverance for learning – grit – is the essence of success; this insight influences how we teach, mark, display and assess.
