Combined Science Tutor

The successful candidate should be part of the plan to help develop the whole individual in accordance with the mission and values of BCT/BCIS namely: Respect, Resilience, Independence, Kindness and Integrity. -As an independent school, BCIS does not require the science curriculum to follow the national curriculum nor undertake qualifications in the subject matter. It must meet the standards of the Education Act 2002 to include experience in science, appropriate to the ages and aptitudes of the pupils including those with special needs. -This should be done in an innovative, engaging way with lessons being practical and fun and learning driven by questions like, 'why is it easy for me to melt ice but not diamond' and the full exploration of the processes (physics, biology and chemistry) involved in listening to a favourite song from speaker vibration to brain and body reactions. Sessions should also aim to include elements of Personal and Social Development where possible. -The course must be captured in a scheme of work, timetable, lesson plans, worksheets and targeted activities. -Main areas will include: course intent and delivery, Individual Learning Plans, lesson observations, learner feedback, guest speaker and trips, assisted learning support for high needs learners, registers and reward scheme, liaison with parents and carers, e-safety, assessment, equality, health and safety and safeguarding
