Teacher of Science (main scale, Outer London)
We are seeking to appoint an inspirational and committed teacher to join our Science team from 1 September 2021.
The successful candidate will be joining our school at an exciting time. Students taking AQA combined science or AQA separate sciences to GCSE have enjoyed considerable success. Separate science is the most popular option of the current year 9 for GCSE and we are considering an increase in the number of separate biology, chemistry and physics classes going forward.
Key Stage 3 science is taught to all year 7 and 8 students, concentrating on the skills and concepts that will be later required for GCSE, with an emphasis on practical. In year 9 we introduce students to the GCSE content using a scheme of work intended to make the transition to GCSE less of a hurdle, again we focus on the practical skills required in the sciences. All students study at least AQA combined science to GCSE with the separate sciences available as an option for those students who are most committed.
The candidate for this post should be able to deliver science at KS3 and combined science KS4, the ability to offer at least one of the separate GCSE sciences would be highly desirable.
