Advert

The school is seeking to appoint a well-qualified teacher of Chemistry to A level for January 2024.

Chemistry is a popular subject at the school with well over 100 students from our mixed sixth form currently studying the OCR A Chemistry qualification in Years 12 and 13. All of our boys in KS4 study Chemistry as part of their triple award AQA GCSE qualification and we teach a bespoke combined science course at KS3 in Years 7 and 8. The successful candidate will be rewarded by working in a department where all unnecessary workload is removed and the emphasis is placed firmly on teaching. All lessons take place in dedicated laboratories and are supported by a subject specific Chemistry technician. In short, we look to free our teachers so they can teach the very best lessons in their own style while working under the guidance of the Head of Chemistry and Director of Science.
