Job description

Required from 1st September 2024

Full time/Permanent

St Cuthbert’s Catholic High School is seeking to appoint an outstanding teacher of physics.

Our science department thrives on the notions of excellence, engagement, and enthusiasm for the subject. We deliver a broad curriculum building science skills, knowledge and understanding through the excellent teaching. The science team is led by a head of science and each curriculum area has its own subject specialist lead. Within the broader science department, each discipline is taught separately from Year 7 to Year 13. Our biologists teach biology, our chemists teach chemistry, and our physicists teach physics. This subject specific focus allows our teachers and our boys to excel. The successful candidate will receive support from an experienced subject leader.

The ideal candidate will be passionate about the science curriculum and how this can be taught in an inspiring way to maximise outcomes, whilst both instilling and developing a love for the subject. We are looking for someone who can help create the next generation of scientists, someone who will inspire our pupils and spark their passion for the subject. Above all, we are looking for someone who will help our boys become better men and show them the difference that science can make in the world. The ability to extend pupils’ engagement beyond the school day, through co-curricular activities would be an advantage.

This is an opportunity to join a well-established and aspirational department in an impressive, all-boys Catholic School that has enjoyed a reputation as a centre of educational excellence for over one hundred years. We welcome applications from newly qualified teachers or early career entrants as well as, experienced science teachers looking for a new challenge.
