General Science Teacher - Physics/Chemistry

We are seeking an enthusiastic and talented general science teacher who is experienced at teaching science up to and including GCSE and A Level and seeking their first move post NQT. The school is equally happy to receive applications from NQTs or other suitably qualified applicants.  

The school is prepared to pay a £1500 joining bonus and £500 relocation expenses for the right candidate.

The Science Department here at King Edward’s is very successful and all students have the option to take Triple Science at GCSE thus enabling pupils to specialise. In addition we have one or two sets each year who will take the Double Science route. The Science Department has a consistent track record of preparing students for University and the Science department as a whole has a strong regional reputation of excellence for preparing students for entry to Medicine and Veterinary courses. Finally, the ability to offer either a combination of Physics or Chemistry will be useful.

Although selective and academic in our focus the School’s ethos is centred on the development of the whole child. We are exceptionally fortunate that our committed staff give of their time generously in numerous different ways to share or pursue a passion with our pupils. We have a flourishing debating society; creative writing groups; music; drama and sport are all strong. We are also unusual for a state school in having a large and active CCF who also help to run our Duke of Edinburgh programme. The desire to share a passion or simply get involved in the extra-curricular life of the school will be crucial. 

Applications should be made on the school’s application form which can be downloaded from www.kevigs.org and should also include a covering letter and CV. Please return by email to rhona.adam@kevigs.lincs.sch.uk The deadline for applications is Monday 23rd April.  Interviews will be held in the same week although the school reserves the right to bring this date forward if it has a suitable field.
