Teacher of Science job summary

This is an ideal opportunity for an Early Career Teacher to take his/her first steps on the career ladder in teaching and further develop his/her skills, or for a more experienced colleague to experience teaching and learning in another school. Our Science staff have a strong tradition of resource sharing so that best practice spreads quickly through the faculty.

The school's values of Trust, Kindness and Determination underpin all we do. Our pupils enjoy their learning in a disruption free environment, and staff are proud to work here. Following our Ofsted inspection in January 2023, Cirencester Deer Park School continues to be a good school. Inspectors noted that:

  • “Pupils welcome leaders’ high expectations of their behaviour and conduct… Pupils enjoy their learning and feel well prepared for the future.”
  • “Pupils behave well in lessons and benefit from learning without low-level disruption from others.”
  • “Staff are proud to work at the school. They feel well supported by leaders in respect of workload, well-being and managing pupils’ behaviour.”

As a high performing comprehensive school in the South Cotswolds, Cirencester Deer Park School is committed to providing outstanding education and developing our staff. A full induction programme is in place to support ECTs and all new staff at Deer Park and across The Corinium Education Trust. Having initially converted to an Academy in April 2011, we are now a leading member of The Corinium Education Trust, the first 'mixed' Multi-Academy Trust in Gloucestershire which brings together a large secondary, community primary and church schools, the leaders of which are ambitious for their pupils' learning and life chances and are committed to continuous school improvement.

Further general information about our school can be found on our school website as well as a letter to applicants, Science faculty information, Teacher job description, an application form and privacy notice for applicants. Interested applicants would be welcome to contact Allison Boucher, Co-Heads' PA by email with any specific questions or to arrange a visit to the school. Completed application forms should be accompanied by a letter of not more than 2 sides of A4 covering the specific points detailed in the letter to applicants, and should reach the school no later than 9am on Thursday 20 March 2025. Interviews are scheduled to take place on Tuesday 25 March 2025.
