Are you a committed, ambitious, and outstanding teacher of science? Outwood Academy Adwick could be the Academy you are looking for! This is a fantastic opportunity for a well-qualified, driven professional, who is an outstanding classroom practitioner, to join our Family of Schools. 

We are committed to putting ‘Students First: Raising Standards and Transforming Lives’. To be successful, you must possess the skills and determination to make a significant difference to the lives of our students and share our single goal of ‘students first’. 

Working alongside a fantastic team, you’ll help us to continue to achieve the highest possible outcomes for students - irrespective of their backgrounds or starting points. The ability to teach Physics A Level and GCSE Physics to high ability students would be advantageous. 

A permanent TLR is available for the right candidate.

The Outwood Grange Family of Schools offers:

• The opportunity to work and progress across the Family of Schools.

• The chance to apply for leadership roles in the Deeps working across the whole Academy.

• The support and expertise of our Directors of Science working across the Family of Schools.

The department has made huge strides in the last 12-15 months, whereby they achieved record results in 2018-19 with a Science progress score of +0.12. Attainment at 44+ and 55+ rose by over 20% from the previous year and above the national average for both measures, whilst our Separate Science students achieved 100% 444+ and 95% 555+, again the highest results in the Academy’s history. 

Furthermore, our Post-16 numbers have seen record numbers within our A Level Biology, Chemistry and Physics options and next year we hope to expand our suite of subjects offered at Post-16 from 3 A Levels to a total of 6 A Levels/Vocational courses. Hence this is a critical appointment for the Academy and is an exciting opportunity for you to join our expanding department.

We offer a holistic education that makes learning stimulating, engaging and enjoyable for every student.

The inspectors were equally complimentary about our sixth form provision, with a wide range of courses on offer; including A Levels, vocational qualifications and T-levels.

We have also won numerous awards as a school and we have been accredited with the prestigious IQM Award, in addition to being an IQM Centre of Excellence for 3 years, which highlights that inclusion at all levels is of paramount importance to us.
