Job overview
Holy Family is a friendly, successful and heavily over-subscribed school with a vacancy for an enthusiastic teacher of Science to join our talented team. You will have access to a wide range of support and an excellent and extensive ECF, RQT and CPD programme.
This is an exciting opportunity for a highly committed teacher with a real passion for Science to inspire students to develop their skills and enjoyment of the subject.
The school is well known for its high academic standards and the warmth of its working relationships. We are committed to providing the best possible education for all our students. Our results at Key Stage 4 and Key Stage 5 are consistently above the national averages. None of these things would have been possible without having a team of staff who have a tremendous sense of vocation and are fully committed to our ‘can do’ culture and inclusive ethos. You will find considerable support and commitment from all of us.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children and staff and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be bound by the school’s safeguarding processes and will need to undertake safeguarding training as necessary. All candidates will be expected to provide two professional references at application stage. Appointment will be subject to safer recruitment procedures, including but not limited to an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Check, satisfactory references, medical clearances, evidence of essential qualifications relevant to the post and proof of the right to work in the UK and to undertake the job offered in accordance with the Asylum and Immigration Act 1996. We are an equal opportunities employer.

Values and vision
Holy Family Catholic High School aims to be a high-achieving school that provides a great level of support and care to each child, to ensure they are given the self-belief and self-confidence to achieve their ambitions. It is a large enough school to provide students with a high number of opportunities and learning facilities, but small enough to be able to cater to each child’s needs and create a healthy working relationship between staff and students.
The mission of Holy Family is to help children develop as well-rounded individuals with a strong faith and empathy for others.
Ofsted report
“Students achieve well, particularly in Key Stages 4 and 5. As a result, they are well prepared for the next stages of their lives. The new headteacher is building well on a tradition of good leadership. He has quickly inspired the school to be ambitious for further improvement. As a consequence, members of the school community are very clear about what they need to do to achieve this.”
