Permanent, Full Time
September 2026 Start
The school is graded 'Good' (November 2023) and has a state-of-the-art building offering fantastic facilities for both students and staff. Over the last 8 years, the school has seen a huge increase in student numbers, with the number of students on roll more than doubling. The school is a popular choice in the local area, is oversubscribed, and has added another new building to meet this demand.
The school is a great place to work with a friendly and supportive team. Staff numbers have also increased, and the school is proud to boast high retention rates. Development is a priority, with an extensive and successful CPD (Continuing Professional Development) programme to further develop staff.
Every member of the team is a vital part of a committed and ambitious team, and there has been strong success in developing teachers and leaders with progression both within and beyond the school.
The "Curriculum Drivers" guide everything, encouraging students to be safe, happy, proud, and reach their full potential.
Ambition: sits at the heart of the curriculum. There is a commitment to high expectations for all and to providing the right scaffolding and support so that every student, whatever their starting point, can achieve their very best.
Character: underpins pastoral care, the teaching and learning approach, and behaviour systems. It is about more than rules and routines; it is about developing resilience, responsibility, and integrity, helping students to learn from mistakes and grow into confident, respectful young people.
Opportunity: ensures that all students benefit from rich personal development and enrichment, both within and beyond the classroom. The aim is for every young person to recognise the possibilities open to them and to leave equipped with the knowledge, experiences, and confidence to take their next steps.
About the Role
We are looking for a passionate and committed Teacher of Science to join an established department.
The Science department is well established and continues to grow, offering an exciting opportunity to join a strong and supportive team with a wide range of expertise and experience. Following a period of expansion, the department is well placed to continue improving outcomes and broadening student opportunities.
The curriculum is regularly reviewed to meet the evolving needs of students. At GCSE, the AQA Trilogy specification is followed, with Separate Sciences offered as an option. At Key Stage 5, Human Biology is currently delivered, with ambitions to extend provision to include A Level Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
Enrichment is a real strength, with a weekly STEM club, a range of trips and competitions, and a growing STEM Ambassador programme promoting science across the school. This is an excellent time to join a department with clear ambition and momentum
