TEACHER OF SCIENCE
We are seeking to appoint an inspirational, highly motivated and innovative teacher of Science, any specialism, to complement our knowledgeable team.
The Science department has a history of outstanding performance outcomes. Students are able to take the three sciences separately at GCSE as well as the three science A levels. We also offer a L3 course in Applied Science. The successful candidate will join a science department fully staffed with specialist science teachers in each of the three science disciplines. The department also runs a variety of science clubs and activities with students regularly participating in regional and national science challenges and events.
Southfield is an exceptional girls’ school with a mixed Sixth Form. This is a fantastic opportunity to be part of our ongoing journey of expansion and development. The school was accredited as World Class in July 2021 and as such, we are committed to providing a world-class education for every student through a well-designed and balanced curriculum. Our established culture provides a calm, safe and stimulating learning environment. Our most recent Ofsted inspection identified our personal development and sixth form as outstanding.
Ethical leadership is at the core of all decision making at Southfield. As such, staff are valued, treated with respect and afforded a diverse range of opportunities that come with professional trust. We place significant emphasis on working collegiately as a staff to share our expertise and subsequently enhance the learning experience with our students. Every member of the staff is involved in a variety of professional learning programmes that take place every Wednesday across the academic year.
We have also implemented a bespoke leadership programme enabling staff to develop their knowledge and understanding of leadership. This has provided a number of promotional opportunities for staff within the school and wherever possible, we will promote from within our school.
We believe that Southfield provides something unique and the perfect environment in which both staff and students have opportunities to flourish and grow in a world of possibilities.
The position will start in September 2025.
