Length of Supporting Statement to Faculty Position application?

Question

I'm currently applying for one "entry-level" faculty position in the UK (CS). Differently from other applications I have seen, in this one they ask the applicant to address each of the items listed in a "Person Specification" section of the job description.There are 15 points, ranging from simple yes/no questions ("Do you have a PhD?") to more elaborate ones ("Evidence of Teaching excellence"). I've addressed everything I can think of in my document so far. However it is quite long, 3.5 pages.My question is: how long is a statement of this nature expected to be? There are no page limits that I have seen. Should I try to shorten it?

Hello,

2 pages, single space, 1 inch margin per side, TNR12, for your application statement.
