Thank you for your interest in the position of Principal Science Technician (2 days).
Our school has been on a continuous upward trajectory for a number of years. In the summers of 2022 and 2023, our Year 11 cohorts have achieved Progress 8 scores putting us in the top 10 in the county.
Numbers of children and parents choosing LSHS as their first choice are consistently rising: we had 120 leave us in Year 11 last summer and we had 160 join us in Year 7 last September.
As a community that develops personal growth, excellence and achievement for all, we are incredibly proud of everything the school has become and what we have achieved in the last few years: our well-rounded young people who have gone on to purposeful and challenging further education, some of the best GCSE results in the county and our recent Ofsted report.
We are also hugely proud of our staff who are relentlessly hardworking, supportive of one another and passionately committed to securing the best possible life chances for the young people we serve.
This role is an exciting opportunity for you to join our Science team and support them in delivering a world class education. Science (both Combined and Triple at GCSE) is a very popular subject and many former students have gone on to pursue careers in this field.
The role is ideal for experienced Science Technicians but also complete beginners who are passionate about Science and keen to learn. It will require huge amounts of perseverance and a constant drive for innovative excellence but will also be incredibly rewarding and will offer exciting progression for the future.
