Teacher of Biology

Full time to start September 2019

We seek an exceptionally high calibre biologist, with superb subject knowledge.   You will have a warm and supportive teaching style as you stimulate and challenge our high achieving girls and nurture their interest in biology. 

You would be joining a very successful team that is looking for someone who can work collaboratively and contribute to the ongoing enrichment of the department.
