Head of Science


The Latimer Arts College


Location

Northamptonshire | United Kingdom


Job description

Would you like to be part of a school recently confirmed as GOOD by Ofsted (April 2023)?

Pupils are happy to attend this school. The school’s values include honesty, excellence, ambition, respect and teamwork. The school’s culture is rooted in these values. There are positive relationships between staff and pupils. Staff have high expectations, and pupils live up to these.

Staff are proud to work at the school. They feel well supported by leaders in respect of workload, well-being and managing pupils’ behaviour. Staff value the professional development they receive.

If so, then you will not want to miss out on this golden opportunity of joining our high-performing school as Head of Science (known as Progress Leader). The person appointed will have a clear vision of what an outstanding Science provision will look like and have the skills to lead in this area.  If you are an outstanding teacher and an ambitious leader, it really is worth applying for this post, which does not often arise. You will be well supported and developed as part of the middle leaders group.

Why come to Latimer? This is a fantastic school to work in: as a result of our success and popularity we are over-subscribed and have a very strong positive reputation. On interview we ask candidates for their impressions of the school and without fail they comment on how wonderful our students are, the supportive team ethos amongst staff and how friendly and welcoming the school is. 

We are a tight-knit unit striving for the very best for our students and we are focussed on, and passionate about, learning and success. We genuinely care about our staff, their well-being and their professional development: we are a happy team, committed to working collaboratively and sharing the very best practice.  

Primarily, the successful candidate will be an outstanding teacher of Science and be able to offer the skills and experience to teach across a range of Science subjects and key stages. 

We have fantastic facilities in a recently built Science block, that any school would be proud of. We offer trilogy and triple science qualifications at GCSE and Biology, Chemistry and Physics are all popular at A level.

We are seeking to appoint a candidate who is passionate about engaging our students in the awe and wonder of Science and inspiring them to be inquisitive and curious about the world around them; someone who really wants to make a difference! 

For an application form and further details, please visit the teaching vacancies page on our website . Alternatively, please email [email protected]

Closing date: 9.00am on Monday 25 March 2024

Early applications are encouraged as we will review applications as we receive them; and applicants may be contacted before the closing date. 

The Latimer Arts College values the diversity of our workforce and welcomes applications from all sectors of the community.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post will be subject to an enhanced DBS disclosure.
