Secondary School Teacher

A secondary school teacher in the UK is responsible for educating students aged 11 to 16, or up to 18 if the school has a sixth form. Teachers create lesson plans, deliver subject content, assess student progress, and provide pastoral support. They also manage classrooms, attend meetings, and may be involved in extracurricular activities. Secondary teachers usually specialise in a particular subject, such as Maths, English, Science, or History. The role involves staying up to date with curriculum changes and using a variety of teaching methods to engage students and help them achieve their academic potential.
