Based at The Ravensbourne School Hayes Kent

Education for the 21st Century is a values-led organisation, driven by a determination to create welcoming and open schools for the local community, where every person thrives, makes excellent progress, and succeeds. We are committed to improving outcomes and transforming lives, realising social mobility, and the transformative power of education. We value the difference in all of our schools while seeking to bring them together around a framework that delivers an enriching experience and a great education for the young people within our care. 

We want the very best for all of our young people. Our plan to ensure that we deliver great schools is underpinned by our shared values of trust, kindness, and endeavour. Our schools and our staff are collaborative and we seek to create consistency and quality throughout.  

Our leaders create improvement in schools that is robust and sustainable. We are as enthusiastic about developing and nurturing our staff, as we are about developing our young people. Our professional development programs and our approach to school improvement provide quality and rigor while creating a depth of experience and learning for our staff. 

In joining The Ravensbourne School and the family of schools within E21C you will gain access to an unparalleled level of support and development in a forward-thinking school and trust.  

We are seeking a dynamic, inspirational and experienced classroom practitioner with strong subject knowledge and experience to join our successful Science Department. We wish to appoint an exceptional individual who has the necessary enthusiasm, skills and motivational attributes to nurture a passion for studying Science at all levels of ability; an individual committed to the highest expectations of attainment for all and capable of encouraging all students to realise their aspirations.

The ideal candidate will maintain rigorous high expectations for staff and students alike. They will also be similarly passionate about their own learning and engagement with continuous professional development, recognising that meaningful learning is much more than what happens in the classroom alone and the importance of enriching the curriculum through meaningful contributions towards our broad extra-curricular provision.

You will have the opportunity to work with a talented team of like-minded leaders, teachers and a strong central team, all working together to build sustainable excellence in our schools.

You can expect the following unique benefits to enhance your working life:

• Outer London Salary
• State-of-the art facilities, including access to our new gym
• Free onsite parking
• Funded CPD courses including MAs and NPQs
• Accredited training with recognised qualifications e.g. Outstanding Teachers Programme with Greenwich University
• Staff CPD library and numerous opportunities to work across the Trust in one of our many working forums

Education for the 21st Century is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. All offers of employment are subject to an Enhanced DBS check, and where applicable, a prohibition from teaching check will be completed for all applicants. Education for the 21st Century is fully committed to equality and to valuing diversity as an employer and a provider of education.
