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. We pride ourselves on our strong Sense of community and the excellent behaviour of the students. Our results have shown impressive improvement over the last 3 years with the majority of subjects consistently above national average; ● English 9-4 82% ● Maths 9-4 82% ● English and Maths 9-4 78% We recently celebrated our centenary and are proud of our traditions, our strong sense of community and the excellent behaviour of our students. We are part of the Success for All Educational Trust, Redden Court School, Sanders School and Rise Park Academies. If you are looking to advance your career in a small, friendly supportive school and are committed to providing the very best experience for our students we would love to meet you. If you would like to speak to the Headteacher, Mr L. Raftery, please feel free to contact the school.
