Teacher of Science (Physics/Chemistry)

The King John School is a heavily oversubscribed 11-18 mixed comprehensive of 1900 students, of which 350 are in the sixth form. In 2013 we were one of the highest performing schools in the country and achieved our highest ever average point score at 'A' level. Combined English and Mathematics GCSE results reached 80% A*-C in 2014.

The school enjoys an excellent reputation, and has been graded at the end of September 2013 as 'Outstanding' across all key areas, based on the new Ofsted Criteria. The school enjoys good staff retention and is wholly committed to continued professional development. To this end, all children of appointed teaching staff are eligible to apply for an automatic place at King John School.

We now wish to recruit an outstanding teacher of Science with a Physics or Chemistry specialism to join our supportive and highly effective faculty. If you feel you have a passion for teaching Science and possess a creative approach to teaching, then we would love to hear from you.

The school has an excellent NQT programme.
