Job overview
Are you passionate about teaching science? Are you a fantastic role model for tomorrow’s scientists? Do you have a particular interest in physics? If you can truthfully answer ‘yes’ to these three questions then you may be the person for us.
We are an outstanding school with a great track record in developing our young people to be outstanding scientists. As a girls’ school with a mixed Sixth Form, we are looking to move to the next level in terms of making Physics a subject of choice for our students as they journey towards becoming the scientists and engineers of the future.
Although you will be able to teach across all three sciences to GCSE, it will be Physics that inspires you, your enthusiasm will be infectious and your track record teaching A Level Physics will be exemplary.

We offer a wealth of career opportunities for more experienced teachers as well as a full support programme for NQTs. A TLR level 2 and/or Lead Teacher status is available for a candidate with exceptional experience who could develop the scheme of work and lead a programme of extracurricular activities that will inspire the next generation of physicists.
If you are enthusiastic and motivated with excellent classroom management and organisational skills, we hope to hear from you.
