Teacher of Physics (Part Time considered)

Candidates should be able to teach Physics  across the age and ability range to KS3, KS4 and KS5, and provide evidence of successful teaching strategies and excellent organisational skills. Applications will be considered from both experienced and newly qualified teachers.

We value excellent relationships within a caring community. Extra-curricular activities play a huge part in the life and success of the school and pastoral systems are extremely strong.

This is an exciting opportunity to join one of the top non-selective secondary schools in the country. We are consistently oversubscribed and have received four ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted reports and ‘World Class Schools’ status (in 2017 and 2020). Coloma achieved  the accolade of 'Best School in Croydon' in the Real Schools Guide in 2020 and in October 2019 received its fifth 'Outstanding' Diocesan Inspection report.

Coloma is very proud of its history of academic achievement; this is due to the hard work, focus, and dedication to Coloma’s ethos shown by pupils and staff alike. In 2019, we achieved excellent exam results with a Progress 8 score of 0.89 at GCSE and an ALPS Score of 2, placing us in the top 10% of A Level providers.

When you join Coloma, your skills, enthusiasm and hard work will be appreciated. In addition, we offer: 

• A school with a strong commitment to your professional development.  
• A working environment focused on Teaching and Learning and raising standards for all.  
• The opportunity to work in a team where your skills, enthusiasm, and hard work will be appreciated.  
• The opportunity to work within the largest cosmopolitan centre outside of Central London, undergoing substantial redevelopment, growth, and change.  
• A school that invests in enrichment and extra-curricular activities.

We welcome applications from colleagues who are supportive of the values of a Catholic School. Many of our staff are members of religious faiths other than Catholic and make an enormous contribution to the wellbeing of our students. Please do not be put off applying for a post if you are not a practising Catholic.
