Job overview

We are seeking to recruit an enthusiastic, motivated and committed teacher of chemistry to join our effective, hardworking and supportive Science Department from September 2015. You will be able to display high standards of teaching and learning in order to enthuse and engage our students and support them in making good progress. If you join as an NQT you will be part of an established and extensive NQT programme, benefiting from the support and expertise of mentors including Lead Practitioners and will be able to continue developing your pedagogy through accessing our TEEP training programme.  In addition to this your bespoke induction programme would include courses delivered through a local collaboration of schools, the Clifton diocese and the international network of Lasallian schools.

St Augustine’s has been placed in the top 10% of non-selective schools nationally for both attainment and progress at KS4. We have an equally impressive tradition at A Level with a track record of students accessing their first choice of university in both the UK and USA. Last year 71% of students’ grades were A-B, placing the College in the top 10% of schools nationally. St Augustine’s prides itself in not only providing an outstanding academic education but also offers a wide range of enrichment and extra-curricular opportunities for students developing skills and qualities in leadership, self-reliance and independence.

The successful candidate will teach science in Key Stage 3 and chemistry to GCSE and A level and will be joining a supportive, committed and experienced team who work hard to deliver innovative and enjoyable lessons whilst securing excellent examination outcomes.

If you are passionate about your subject and have a strong desire to make a difference to young people, whilst fulfilling your own potential, then we would love to hear from you.
