Full Job Description

Team Leaders in Biology, Chemistry and Physics

Subject Leader in Psychology at Key Stage 5

Subject Leader in Health and Social Care at Key Stage 5

There are fifteen laboratories, six at the Lower School and ten at the Upper School. Four of the laboratories at Upper School have been replaced as part of a newly completed £1.3M building project. The level of equipment and resources is good.

Teaching Programme

At Key Stage 3 students are taught in balanced tutor groups by one science teacher. The schemes of work have been written by the staff and are based around the National Curriculum. There is continuing development with an emphasis on providing a well differentiated curriculum for students. Faculty staff also use classroom strategies to promote assessment for learning.

At Key Stage 4 there is some setting by attainment but most classes are mixed ability; each group is taught by two teachers, whose specialisms are complementary. All students follow AQA GCSE Trilogy Science. Last summer 81% of our students achieved a grade 4 or higher and 21% achieved a grade 7 or higher.

The Science faculty offers A Level courses in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Psychology and Health and Social Care (Cambridge Nationals). Within the Sixth Form, Psychology and Biology consistently prove to be one of the most popular subject choices. Student performance is good with most students achieving on or above target.

At all levels we aim to meet the needs of all students. The co-operative teamwork of the staff in sharing expertise and ideas plays a major part in our efforts to achieve this.
