Teacher of Science - Scalby School, Scarborough job summary

£4,000 RECRUITMENT AND RETENTION PAYMENT AND ACCESS TO A RELOCATION REIMBURSEMENT OF UP TO £8,000 FOR THE RIGHT CANDIDATE

Start date: September 2020
‘Staff morale is high with staff welcoming the open conversations about teaching, and they welcome the ways leaders encourage the evaluation and sharing of what works’ Ofsted 2019
Why come and join our school?
Scalby School is a successful and popular 11-16 community school and in recent years we have become the school of choice in our local community. We were judged ‘good’ by Ofsted in 2019 and in 2019 we celebrated sustained results. Our provisional P8 score places us in the top 20% of schools nationally again. We are proud of our broad and balanced GCSE based curriculum.

Our students are diverse, exciting and talented – and the same is true of our staff. We put huge emphasis on professional development, most of it in-house, and are proud of the highly effective teaching, which characterises our school. We are also noted for our ‘can do’ attitude. We are keen, always, to encourage new and/or young staff to make their mark as soon as they are ready.

We are:

• A ‘Good’ school in every area as judged by Ofsted in 2012 and in 2019

• A school with above average Progress 8 score because our students exceed expectations.

• A school with a clear focus on teaching and learning. We are proud of our bespoke programme of nationally recognised, high-profile seminars designed by our Teaching School and with key note speakers from across the educational world.

• A leading school in the Scarborough and North Yorkshire area with a real focus on making sure all our staff develop professionally.

• A school where the development of the culture and character of our students is at the heart of our curriculum – so that all our students leave school knowing how to conduct themselves in the wider world.

Our opportunity
As a result of growing numbers we are looking to appoint an additional Science colleague to our department which is fully staffed with subject experts.
In 2019 our Science Results at Grade 5 and above were:
• Biology – 98%
• Chemistry – 93%
• Physics – 91%
• Combined Science – 36%

You would join a Science faculty of seven which is staffed with Science specialists who continue to build year on year in terms of outcomes, curriculum and extracurricular options to our students. A key focus for the department is to build on the strengths and successes seen across English and Maths and as our new teacher, you will work closely with the team who will support, develop and challenge you.

We are looking for an experienced colleague to join us although we will consider applications from NQTs – what goes without saying is that we will support you, develop you and above all welcome you into our aspirational school.
