Job overview
Teacher of Science
Required for April 2019
Plus relocation package and 6 months’ free accommodation if required
William Edwards has one of the strongest Science Departments in the country with outcomes at GCSE regularly well above the national average. It is a young, vibrant team with a strong emphasis on creativity and professional development. A number of the team have been trained by us via the Thurrock Teaching School which is located at the school.
William Edwards is a very popular, oversubscribed 11-16 school, judged ‘outstanding’ by OfSTED. It is the strategic lead school for the Thurrock Teaching School Alliance and is part of the growing South West Essex Community Education Trust. Core subject pupil outcomes are significantly above the national average.
We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic teacher to join our highly committed Science team. We will welcome applications from people at any stage of their career as we know that the training and development we can offer is second to none and with a new trust Secondary School recently approved by the DfE and due to open next year, continued career progression in the future is a real possibility.
The Science Department is well resourced and has seen significant recent investment including new laboratories and refurbishment. The Department also benefits from 3 highly experienced technicians and is currently engaged in a range of work to further develop pedagogy across the department and school. The school offers a comprehensive induction programme for all new staff and a strong commitment to continuing staff development and training through the Teaching School.
If you have energy and passion in abundance and would relish the opportunity to join our Science team, we look forward to hearing from you.

About William Edwards School
SWECET is a growing, cross phase Multi Academy Trust, established in 2015 to serve the needs of its communities. SWECET currently has three ‘Good’ primary schools, one ‘Outstanding’ secondary and one ‘RI’ Secondary that joined the Trust in April 2017. The Trust believes that schools should be unique and individual institutions with distinct character and that through effective partnership we can challenge, support and learn from each other in order to raise standards and provide exceptional opportunities for all our young people. It is an exciting time to be joining SWECET with all schools continually striving to be better. Considered, purposeful growth plans are in place that will be to the benefit of all stakeholders. We were invited by the DfE as an approved sponsor to submit applications to open a new Primary Free School in Havering and Secondary Free School in Thurrock. These are both due to open in 2020.
