Head of Chemistry

Rosebery is a vibrant and stimulating place to work. We have a record of high performance but continually challenge all members of our community to improve further, in order to fulfill our moral purpose to provide the best possible educational experience for our students who are a delight to teach.

We set high expectations for all, but this is accompanied by a support system for students and staff which includes universal access to coaching and mentoring, significant opportunities for individualised personal, academic and professional development and a culture which emphasises kindness and integrity above all.

We are committed to creating a happy, purposeful and secure environment which provides the opportunity for all to develop and grow; to build confidence and self-belief; and to be enriched and stimulated so that everyone plays an active and positive part of the Rosebery, Epsom and wider communities.

In May 2017, Ofsted graded the school as ‘Outstanding’ in all areas.

Working at Rosebery is challenging and stimulating. If you choose to join us at this very exciting stage of our development, you will have an opportunity to make a real difference to the way we deliver education for our students.   Epsom, Surrey is a thriving market town located only a stone’s throw from London, but a million miles from the hustle and bustle of the capital. The town has lovely theatre and a wide range of parks, shops, restaurants and cafes.
