The sciences are a highly popular and successful subject area at KEFW. ‘Triple’ and ‘Double’ Science are offered at GCSE, and at ‘A’ level there are over 100 students studying each of Biology, Chemistry and Physics.  

We are currently looking to appoint a well-motivated and ambitious professional to:

KEFW is a very oversubscribed and “outstanding” co-educational grammar school on the edge of Birmingham. The staff and students enjoy their learning together and high academic standards are accompanied by an appreciation of fun and a commitment to enrichment beyond the curriculum. Our Science team is a key driver to the continued success at KEFW with many of our students going on to study A-Level and a number studying subjects like medicine, dentistry or veterinary science at “Oxbridge” and “Russell Group” universities.  

This post offers an outstanding opportunity for the right candidate to join our team and make an impact on the strategic direction of the department; there is a friendly, caring ethos in the school, with an enthusiastic and supportive staff.
