We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and inspirational teacher to lead the Biology Department. The position provides an opportunity for someone to build on the successes of the department following the leadership of the current Head of Department, who is retiring from the role in September. Separate sciences are taught by 13 teachers in the department from KS4 onwards. Our KS3 curriculum is being developed into a three-year model, however more time is given to Science than is the case in other schools, so that we can focus on experiments and opportunities to develop scientific thinking. The majority of our GCSE students study separate sciences, but we also deliver the trilogy combined science course. Students follow the AQA specification in all three sciences. Science is a very popular subject in school with many students opting to take A level sciences and study this post 16.
The school is committed to safeguarding children and young people. All post holders are subject to a satisfactory enhanced DBS check (Disclosure & Barring Service).
