What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint an ambitious, enthusiastic, and talented teacher of science who is able to obtain the best outcomes for their pupils.

We are looking for someone who is passionate about their subject and determined to impart knowledge, skills and understanding to all our young people, whilst exciting and engaging them in their learning. The successful candidate will teach both KS3 and KS4 pupils and to have experience of delivering to GCSE examination level would be an advantage.

You will need to be ambitious in your determination to ensure all our learners achieve and develop to their full potential and be inspirational in the classroom.

You will be part of the supportive and committed team. We aim to offer students an exciting curriculum and a huge range of extra-curricular opportunities within a safe, secure and encouraging environment.

As co-ordinator of STEM you will lead, manage and develop STEM throughout the school and be accountable for the standards of teaching, learning and assessment and student progress. This role will be student-focused and will ensure high standards and expectations for both students and staff at all times.

You will ensure that no student is ‘left behind’ and that all students, including the most vulnerable, are engaged, taking part in learning and demonstrate impeccable behaviour and the school values. The role will be pivotal in ensuring the students attending Moorside High School have the best opportunities and that barriers to learning are eliminated, as far as possible, allowing them to achieve the very best outcomes.

The successful candidate will present the best possible example of professional standards to colleagues.

What the school offers its staff

Moorside High School is a popular and successful school that offers education for students aged 11-16. We have strong links with our partner primary schools ensuring when students arrive, they are already familiar with many of our teachers and have visited our site to enjoy lessons here numerous times before formally joining us.

We work in partnership, with integrity to ensure our students are at the heart of all we do, ensuring every opportunity is available, instilling equity, being completely inclusive, striving for excellence, whilst staying people centered. Above all, we will live by our school values, Consideration, Aspiration, Resilience, Equality. We have a clear moral purpose and strong educational philosophy to provide each student with the very best education and ensure that, no matter what their background is, students leave us with the skills and support they need to thrive in life beyond school. It seems simple and obvious, but there is nothing more important than the quality of teaching and learning in our classrooms – every minute, every lesson, every day. Staff are learners too. We place significant emphasis on staff development and collaborative partnerships to ensure what goes on in and beyond our classrooms is as good as it can be.

Our school is located on the state-of-the-art Moorside Campus, where we embrace the latest technologies, facilities, and equipment to provide a platform for students to prosper.

In March 2022, we were judged by Ofsted to be ‘Good’ which is testament to the hard work and dedication of the staff and students. As Moorside High School continues to grow and develops as part of the Trust, this appointment will play an integral part in shaping the future of our school.
