What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic Teacher of Science to join our supportive and successful faculty. All our students study Science with many of them completing Triple Science at GCSE level. Our boys are very enthusiastic about the study of this subject and take advantage of the many extra-curricular activities offered by the faculty (such as the Faraday Challenge and Lego Robotics - in both of these, teams from our school reached the regional finals). Results in Science are consistently strong; we are very proud of this success and are looking for a new teacher to join our aspirational team.

This post would be very suitable for an Early Career Teacher (ECT) looking for their first appointment. ECTs are fully supported by an induction programme delivered by the school and the Empower Alliance.

We take a collaborative view of learning where good practice is shared through a structured INSET programme within school and across the Trust.
