Dollar Academy is a leading 5-18 co-educational HMC independent school of around 1350 pupils, set in a beautiful location in central Scotland, within easy reach of the university cities of Stirling, Edinburgh, Glasgow and St Andrews. The school has been at the heart of Scotland’s educational development for the past 200 years and has recently been named as the Sunday Times Scottish Independent School of the Year 2024.
Dollar also has one of the strongest sporting programmes in Scotland. The principal team sports offered are rugby, hockey, cricket, athletics and tennis. All members of the Physical Education department contribute to the co-curricular programme, requiring them to run after-school practices and to work on Saturday mornings, and potentially at other times.
The salary for the post will be in accordance with the SNCT main grade scales with a generous Dollar enhancement in addition. It should be noted that the Chartered Teachers pay scale does not apply to teachers employed by the Academy.
It is a legal requirement for any teacher to be registered with the GTCS whilst teaching in a Scottish school and your appointment is subject to confirmation of registration.
