Longfield Academy has a great opportunity to appoint a talented and inspiring Teacher of Science who will join us from April 2024, strengthening our already successful department even further. Our successful candidate will teach mainly across KS3 / 4 (with the ability to teach KS5), and will be passionate about their subject, committed to academic excellence and have the ability to motivate, support and enthuse students. You will join an established department with a friendly, dedicated team who achieve excellent results.
We can be receptive to teachers joining us at varying stages in their career; whether you are a recently qualified teacher or one who has many years teaching experience, we can ensure that you are developed within the department and wider academy.
