Teacher of Science job summary
We are looking to recruit a passionate and open-minded science educator. This is a forward-thinking department, with a unique take on the science curriculum. We have put the growth of our community’s science capital at the heart of what we do, seeking to equip our students to become the next generation of problem-solvers and activist citizens. STEM and vocational enrichment pervade our science offer, which points to far beyond our successful GCSE attainment.
Serving the diverse communities of Deptford, our science department has shown rapidly increasing results. There is a popular triple science offer available as an additional option, as well as outstanding SEN and EAL provision. Every year group has a strong emphasis on practical experiences, with investigations, field trips, dissections, and expert visits, delivered in thematic units linking the science curriculum to real-world experiences such as midwifery, architecture, and meditation.
This is not a run-of-the-mill department or school, and we are looking to recruit someone who shares our passion for science education based on wonder and joy as well as rigour and high expectations. Our school has an Innovative and non-judgmental approach to performance management, centring process and pedagogy, and we are particularly interested in applications from teachers who consider themselves lifelong learners.
NQT and early-career applicants are welcome. We have an excellent mentoring program, and the right appointee will benefit from a wealth of experience and support, both formal and informal.
We are looking for a teacher who is:
▪ Passionate about education and science
▪ An innovative and creative practitioner
▪ Committed to raising standards, with the highest expectations of all students.
▪ Committed to working collaboratively across key stages 3 and 4
▪ Able and wanting to work collaboratively with the science team
▪ Committed to developing as a teacher and contributing to the continued development of the department.
