We are looking for an exceptional Physics teacher to collaborate with our team in elevating student attainment and achievement levels within the department. The ideal candidate should possess a strong passion for science, along with excellent subject knowledge, to motivate students towards embracing STEM subjects and exploring related career opportunities. The ability to teach Physics to KS5 is preferred, however it is essential to have the capability to teach all sciences up to KS4 and demonstrate effective classroom management skills.
The science faculty comprises 10 fully equipped labs and a classroom, with each teacher assigned to their lab. There are also 2 office spaces and a fully equipped kitchen dedicated to the science faculty. Science is taught as separate subjects from KS3 to KS4, primarily by subject-specific teachers. Teachers have access to a shared drive containing lesson resources and teaching timelines managed by Heads of Departments. The Lead Practitioner collaborates with science teachers to identify and support underperforming students. New teachers receive mentorship within the faculty to aid in their integration. Our school hosts a highly successful STEM club and engages in Physics challenge activities for high-achieving students.
