Job overview
The Governors of St. Richard Gwyn Catholic High School are looking to appoint a highly-motivated, creative and innovative teacher to develop a high-quality curriculum across the school.
The post would be ideal for any individual looking to broaden their experience or a candidate with experience seeking a new challenge. The successful applicant will teach across KS3 and 4; having the opportunity to shape and innovate our learners’ experience as we develop our new curriculum at KS3 and prepare for the new suite of qualifications at KS4.
The importance of science and technology in our modern world cannot be overstated. Developments in these areas have always been drivers of change in society, underpinning innovation and impacting on everyone’s lives economically, culturally and environmentally. As such, the Science and Technology Area of Learning and Experience (Area) will be increasingly relevant in the opportunities young people encounter and the life choices that they make.
Ready access to vast amounts of data requires all learners to be able to assess inputs critically, understand the basis of information presented as fact, and make informed judgements that impact their own behaviours and values. They need to develop the ability to meaningfully ask the question, ‘Just because we can, does that mean we should?’
We welcome applications from candidates who are passionate and who are able to enthuse, engage and motivate learners. We intend to provide a rich programme of extra-curricular experiences for pupils to enjoy.
