About the role

Think you can spot great teaching at 100 paces? We are seeking to appoint an outstanding, passionate teacher of Science who can inspire out pupils by delivering engaging, high quality lessons . If you’re an experienced science teacher ready for a new challenge, we’ve got something special for you. We’re after someone who loves the classroom, thrives on making learning stick, and knows how to spark curiosity in young minds. If you believe great teaching changes lives, we want to hear from you. This isn’t a role for spectators. We want someone who rolls up their sleeves, gets stuck in, and makes people feel both supported and challenged. Relationships matter here. One of the greatest advantages of being a small school is simple: every pupil is known. You won’t just know the names on your register. You’ll get to know the young people behind them - what motivates them, what they find difficult and when they need challenging. Being small also means that staff have a visible impact - ideas can become action quickly, colleagues know and support one another, and you can play a meaningful part in shaping the wider life of the school. If you enjoy being part of a team and are willing to get involved, you’ll thrive here. We believe excellent teaching develops when teachers have the time and space to think deeply about their practice. That’s why professional development happens every week. Our weekly PD sessions give colleagues regular opportunities to explore teaching and learning, share practice, deepen subject knowledge and think together about what will make the biggest difference to our pupils. We’re embedding the use of StepLab to support this work by helping us turn evidence-informed ideas into deliberate practice, reflection and practical improvements in the classroom.
