Would you like to join a successful and friendly Science team?
We aim to develop the scientific thinking of students, nurture their natural curiosities and encourage them to be brave enough to try out new ideas. The main focus of the teachers in our department is to plan and teach interesting and purposeful lessons which help our children achieve the best they can.
Our team currently consists of nine full time teachers and four part time teachers. We are supported by a team of four dedicated technicians and a link HLTA. We have eight full size teaching labs and two smaller labs in the main school, and two full size Sixth Form teaching labs.
At Key Stage 3, students have three science lessons per week in Years 7 and 8, increasing to 4 in Year 9. At present, we follow the Pearson exploring Science scheme. This is fully resourced with both support and differentiated materials, an online textbook for all students and extensive opportunities for further multimedia activities.
At Key stage 4, all students follow the AQA Science GCSE course. The majority are entered for Science: Trilogy. Around one quarter of the year group will study Triple Science. As in Key Stage 3, the course is fully resourced with a wealth of support material and an online textbook via Kerboodle. Staff teach subjects in which they have expertise wherever possible. The students have separate teachers for Biology, Chemistry, and Physics.
We have a long tradition of A-Level teaching in the department and offer A-Levels in the three Sciences. Many students go onto to study science related degrees. The opportunity to teach across all three Key Stages will be available to any suitable candidates.
