Job overview
Kingsway Park High School are currently looking to appoint a new Teacher of Science who has a real passion for their subject and is equipped with the skills to maximise outcomes for students in Science at both KS3 and KS4. Science at KPHS follows the AQA specification where we teach both Trilogy Combined and Triple Science. At KS3 we have a sequenced curriculum which enables students to build their knowledge and skills sequentially leading into KS4 following a bespoke curriculum using the AQA specification.
The science team is a warm and welcoming team, with a wealth of experience across all three sciences. We take great pride in our support of ECTs and equally in providing in-house CPL for staff to constantly develop. We currently run our own CPL sessions to increase capacity to teach at grade 7-9 and enable staff to deliver content outside of their specialism. We are a large team with currently 13 full time teachers, two part time teachers and two technicians. Due to the popularity of Triple Science, we are now looking to expand our team further. We have developed a strong ethos around developing staff whether that be in their pedagogy or in increasing opportunities for responsibilities for those looking for career progression.
The team also offer extensive extracurricular sessions for students which we always encourage new staff to get involved with whether it be science club, games club or starting something new around a personal passion.
