What skills and experience we're looking for

The Royal School is seeking a highly motivated and innovative Science Teacher to join the department from September 2023 in this heavily oversubscribed day and boarding free school. STEM subjects are at the heart of our education philosophy and student uptake in A-level and triple science subjects is high. The aptitude to teach a range of abilities from ages 11-18 is therefore essential. The ability and enthusiasm to teach across the science disciplines with a flair and passion is crucial as well as a flexibility to contribute within the department and to the development of a love of science from Reception to Y13. We are looking for the best candidate to join the team so applications are welcome from biologists, physicists and chemists and the ability to teach up to A level would be desired. The days required would be Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.

• Two additional weeks holiday compared to many schools (one week prior to Christmas, one week early in the summer)
• Free breakfast, lunch and evening meals
• Free tea and coffee provided
• Staff laptop
• Cycle to work scheme

• Opportunities for you and your family to attend boarding activities e.g. parties, Alton Towers, visits to cities and museums.
