Closing date: 9am Friday 18th October 2024 with the provision of interviewing before if there is an exceptional candidate.

Christ Church Secondary Academy opened in September 2021, welcoming the first cohort of students into year 7 and is growing year on year into a 11 – 18 Church of England academy. The vision is for all to flourish together within a Church School community. We are one community: students, parents and carers, staff and governors learning together and serving the community of Yardley Wood and beyond. At Christ Church we aim to provide an exceptional education, supported by excellent pastoral care with an insistence on securing the highest standards in everything we do.

We value each student as an individual, recognising their different talents and needs, and in working together we aspire for each one to be courageous, confident, and successful in all they do.

We are looking for an ambitious, passionate and experienced Leader of Science. This is a pivotal and exciting time as the school looks to start teaching key stage 4 in September 2024 with the opportunity to be innovative and creative in setting up the programme of study whilst securing the key stage 3 curriculum. As a new build, we have fantastic facilities including eight state of the art science labs and two preparation rooms. We are seeking to appoint a middle leader who will be inspired by the Christian vision of Christ Church Secondary Academy and will want to be actively part of the journey as we grow into a fully open school by 2028.

Applications should be made electronically by completing our online application form through My New Term. The academy reserves the right to close the position before the closing date if there is a strong field of applicants.

Interviews will be arranged for the week beginning 21st October
