This is a fantastic opportunity for a teacher who really wants to make a difference to the lives of young people. Our single goal is 'Students First' and you will be joining a strong team of professionals led by an experienced head of department working to this sole aim. Student outcomes are excellent year on year. Studying the AQA specifications, our top set of students study separate sciences with the remainder studying Higher and Foundation Combined Science. In 2025 across all science subjects, triple and combined, 76% of grades were at least grade 4 and above, 50% grade 5 and above and 25% grade 7 and above. Many of our students go on to pursue A Levels in science subjects post 16. We also run several enrichment activities at the end of the school day aimed at both supporting students in the run up to GCSEs and to widen the experiences of the subject by offering a KS3 science club.
