The vacancy arises as a result of more hours of Science being taught at GCSE level, and one more colleague shifting to part-time. The vacancy represents an exciting opportunity for a graduate of Science (Biology and or Chemistry or a related discipline) to establish themselves in a reflective and forward-looking Faculty within a selective school.
Candidates should be able to teach Chemistry to GCSE and A level and the ability to teach Biology to GCSE level would be an advantage.
The successful applicant will also be required to teach Science at KS3.
