This is an exceptional opportunity for a committed and enthusiastic Science Teacher to join a thriving mainstream secondary school in Hertfordshire this January.

The successful candidate will join a forward-thinking and collaborative Science Department that prides itself on innovative teaching, rigorous curriculum design, and excellent student support. You will be responsible for delivering KS3 and KS4 Science, with the option to teach a specialism at KS5 depending on experience. The department benefits from purpose-built laboratories, modern equipment, digital learning tools, and an extremely supportive technician team.

The school is committed to maintaining high aspirations for all pupils, with a clear emphasis on stretch and challenge. Science is a popular subject at GCSE, with strong uptake at A-Level in Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

The wider school environment is calm, respectful, and built around strong routines. Staff wellbeing is taken seriously, with a structured mentoring programme, reduced administrative burden, and regular CPD.
