TEACHER OF SCIENCE

Start Date: September 2021

We are looking for a suitably qualified, enthusiastic teacher of Science to teach from Key Stage 3 through to A level in a highly successful Grammar School.  Ideally, you will have experience of teaching Biology or Chemistry to A Level and Biology and/or Chemistry to GCSE.

This post would suit an ambitious, experienced teacher with middle management aspirations as there are potential TLR’s available for either Head of Biology or Head of Chemistry or KS3 Science Coordinator.

This is a wonderful career opportunity to work in a very strong, successful and supportive team in a popular school and would be suitable for either a newly qualified or experienced teacher.

Highworth Grammar School is an outstanding over-subscribed 11 – 18, selective girls’ school of 1525 students with 463 students in the Sixth Form (72 boys).  We are situated in the South East of England, with excellent transport links to both the rest of Kent and London. 

The school was judged to be Outstanding in all areas in June 2013.  In 2019 our A Level results placed us in the top 25% of schools nationally. 

Academic results are consistently high and Highworth is indeed a great place to teach. Why not come and be a part of our exciting future?

Further information and an application form are available from our website: www.highworth.kent.sch.uk

Closing Date: Wednesday 31st March 2021 at 9am
