Main Scale Post
Charters School Science Department is looking to appoint an exciting and innovative teacher of Science to join our friendly, dynamic and collaborative department. We need you to have a love of teaching and a willingness to trial new ideas and be a team player who puts the good of the students at the heart of all that you do.
Charters School is a very heavily over-subscribed 11-18 comprehensive Academy School with 1700 students on roll (including 380+ in the Sixth Form) located in Sunningdale. It has been graded as an “outstanding” school on two successive occasions and is a dynamic, high-achieving secondary school where students are polite, motivated to succeed and enjoy their education.
The School offers a strong tradition of excellent outcomes but also a broad curriculum suited to all students. The school’s behaviour policy is robust, and staff have welcomed the introduction of centralised sanctions and inclusive polices.
We believe our best resources are our teachers. There is a popular and thriving programme of continuing professional development in the department and across the school, at all levels, and colleagues have the opportunity to develop personally and professionally through our long-standing membership of the PiXL club. The school also offers excellent promotion prospects and a comprehensive induction programme. Colleagues benefit from a commitment to staff well-being and are provided with several schemes to support them maintain an active and healthy lifestyle. The priority admission of children of successful applicants applies for this subject.
This post would be appropriate for an ECT or a more experienced teacher – we will also consider applications from candidates who would request a part-time role.
