Teacher of Drama- job post

The Drama Department at Sherborne Girls consists of two teachers and a Speech and Drama tutor. It is housed in the newly refurbished Stuart Centre which includes a flexible studio performance space furbished to a very high standard, a workshop studio, a classroom and several smaller rehearsal rooms. The main productions are performed in the Gransden Hall (SG) or the BSR (Sherborne Boys (SB)) each year with smaller and examination performances in the Stuart Centre.

Drama is taught for one period a week at KS3 and then an option at both GCSE and A Level, following the Eduqas specification for both. Co-curricular Drama is an important part of the department’s work, including a joint senior school production and joint junior production (both with SB), a joint L6 play each summer and a West production each year along with other ongoing activities such as House Drama, House Dance, Tech Club and the Scholars’ programme. Due to the full boarding nature of the school, rehearsals are always in the evenings and at weekends.

We have an exciting opportunity for a full time Teacher of Drama to join our Drama department from November 2025 or January 2026.
