Teacher of Physics and potential additional role of Second in Department

The successful applicant will be part of a team of 11 dedicated professionals, including 3 specialist Physics Technicians, who deliver engaging 'hands-on' lessons. The department is extremely well-resourced and full support with induction and continuing professional development is provided.
Experience or ability to teach another Science is desirable but is not a requirement of the post.

All teachers are expected to contribute to the rich co-curricular life of the College, but there are no residential duties.

Applicants should specify in their application whether they wish to be considered for the additional Second in Department role. The selection process for the Second in Department role will take place in the autumn 2024 or spring 2025 term.

As one of the world's leading schools, and with a strong pioneering heritage, our aim is to embody excellence, independence and empowerment in the education of young women. You will join a friendly and supportive community of committed professionals who believe that our students are at the heart of all we do. We are ambitious for their futures, collectively and individually, and have been so for 170 years.

Applications are welcome from graduates and teachers from either the independent or maintained sector. Consideration will also be given to well qualified physicists interested in working towards gaining their PGCE and Qualified Teacher Status (QTS).

A well-qualified, passionate and dynamic Physics teacher who will inspire and challenge the students to think and learn in a supportive and positive environment is required to join our thriving department.
Sciences are a popular choice for our students with almost 70% of the Sixth Form cohort taking one or more Science at A-level or at Higher Level as part of the IB Diploma Programme. There are currently 68 students studying Physics at this level.
