Teacher of Physics

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join Mount House School as a Teacher of Science. We are seeking to appoint a dynamic and inspirational teacher to provide expertise in science subjects with a specialism in Physics. This is advertised as a full-time role but we would be happy to discuss applications close to full-time for the right candidate. This post would suit experienced teachers, current subject leads, or ECTs.

The school is expanding and currently has 5 newly refurbished science laboratories. The department is made up of specialists who usually teach across two of the sciences. Biology, Chemistry and Physics are taught as separate lessons from Key Stage Three and classes are considerably smaller than many other schools. The department is well-resourced and active in co-curricular activities as well as developing some outreach work with local primary schools. At GCSE the AQA syllabus is taught, many of whom opt for the Single Awards, while others take the Double Award. A small handful of students have the option to take the AQA Foundation Combined Science. At A Level the OCR Physics course is taught.

How to Apply:

The post is available from September 2024.

Please note that CVs alone will not be accepted.

Early applications can be invited for interview on Monday 15th April 2024 should the teacher have to give notice for the start of the Summer term. We reserve the right to close this advert early if we are able to appoint to the vacancy before the advertised closing date. We therefore encourage applicants to submit their applications as soon as possible.
