Being an all-through school allows us to also work closely with Primary colleagues, and share best practice between Phases to ensure a smooth transition for students on entry into the Secondary Phase.

The Science department offers a broad and ambitious curriculum that empowers teachers to tailor learning to their students' academic, social and emotional needs.  Planning is centralised as we aim to work collaboratively, but teachers are encouraged to select resources and activities that are suitable to the learners in their classes and have flexibility in how they address learning objectives to ensure the best outcomes for their students.  Triple Science is a popular GCSE option with 3 classes in Year 11 and 2 classes in Years 9 and 10.  KS4 students study the AQA GCSE for both Triple Science and Combined Science (Trilogy specification).  For KS5, we offer A Levels in Biology and Chemistry, as well as a Level 3 AQA in Applied Science.  We are currently looking to expand our provision to include A Level Physics soon.

A TLR is available for a suitable candidate and further details can be provided upon request.

Our commitment to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of our children will be reflected throughout the recruitment process and the successful applicant will be subject to an Enhanced DBS check and an online screening check.
