The Role
We are seeking a leader who will ensure: excellent results at GCSE and A level across all Sciences, that Science remains at the heart of the curriculum offer and that 6th form recruitment is maximised.

You will get a real opportunity to make a difference within a school which encourages students and staff to be aspirational. We have an innovative partnership with a well-regarded school in the independent sector. Staff development is a priority for all, and we provide structured CPD. High achieving teachers have access to an accelerated leadership programme linked to NPQs. Staff wellbeing is a priority, and the Trust provides an employee assistance programme for all staff. All teaching staff receive a work laptop.
