What skills and experience we're looking for

“Wavell is a harmonious school where everyone pulls together to do their best”

“Pupils have very positive attitudes to learning and cooperate well with their teachers and classmates” (Ofsted)

Successful candidates have the opportunity to be fast tracked into leadership via our NPQ programme.

Science is a highly successful subject at The Wavell School. Results are well above the national average with over 80% of students gaining at least two standard passes in Science and with 30% of students studying three separate Sciences.

We are looking to appoint a dynamic classroom practitioner who:

  • has excellent subject knowledge
  • is resilient and resourceful
  • who ideally can teach all Science subjects through to GCSE, although there can be some specialism at KS4 (all considered)
  • sets a high standard and who inspires students to meet this
  • makes learning exciting, leading to high levels of engagement and exam success
  • thrives within a team and who enjoys collaborative working

What the school offers its staff

  • exceptional culture and behaviour
  • a supportive and welcoming professional environment
  • a relentless focus on staff wellbeing
  • regular opportunities for continuing professional development
  • structured support for ECTs and trainees, to help you settle and thrive in your new career
  • professional challenge, with professional development opportunities for potential managers

Commitment to safeguarding

This school is committed to safeguarding children and promoting the welfare of children and young people/vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
In our school we are committed to securing genuine equality of opportunity, whether required by law or not, in all aspects of our activities as an employer and service provider. This commitment is based on our belief in the broad principles of social justice and our aim is to provide services and employment on a fair and equitable basis.
