What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking a well-qualified and enthusiastic science graduate to grow and enhance our large and successful science team as a result of recent increases in the uptake of science courses post-16, Psychology at KS4 and pupil intake in KS3.

The science department is a highly successful one, making a significant contribution to EBacc progress scores that are consistently significantly above the national average. In 2023, (latest validated data), KS4 science value added was significantly above national and in the top 28% of all schools. Attainment across all courses in KS5 is also strong, with Biology A level in the top 20% of all schools.

We would expect the successful candidate to teach all Science disciplines at Key Stage 3 and in Key Stage 4 Combined Science and demonstrate their potential to teach their specialist subject in Triple Science. We offer the full range of science courses in the sixth form and therefore applicants with the desire to teach A level or BTEC level 3 Applied Science can be well supported by the school. We also offer GCSE and A level Psychology within the Science department.

What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking an exceptional Science teacher with the energy, passion and creativity to teach Science in the Secondary phase of our thriving All-Through school. This is an opportunity for a full time position from January 2025. A later start will be considered for the right candidate.

The Team

Our highly qualified and successful Science department consists of a five strong collaborative and highly capable teaching team, supported by two experienced and exceptionally creative Technicians. The Science Department is housed in six state of the art, bright, high-ceilinged labs and two specialist preparation rooms, with impressive views of the local area. Our results have been increasing year on year, with GCSE results in line with national average progress 8 scores. As a department we are committed to improving outcomes and sparking interest, with small class sizes in all GCSE year groups. The required science practicals are only a small part of the number of practical lessons that occur throughout the year, and all Science lessons - from Year 7 upwards - are timetabled in specialist laboratories to support our approach.

Pupils are entered for AQA Science Trilogy GCSE with a significant number of students opting for Triple Science, which is one of the most popular GCSE choices at CFS.

The Role

The successful candidate will be expected to teach Science from Years 7 to 11. Due to the current expertise in the team – all three Sciences are ably represented – a specialist in Biology, Chemistry or Physics would be welcomed. Most secondary teachers at CFS are also tutors for a year-based tutor group; a time allowance is provided when undertaking this role.

You will:

• be a well-qualified, enthusiastic graduate of Science, or appropriately linked discipline/subject
• be a highly-skilled and competent teacher who is enthusiastic and totally committed to the ethos of CFS
• readily establish excellent relationships with both staff and pupils
• have an up-to-date awareness of current issues relating to Science teaching, especially new curriculum and GCSE requirements

• enjoy pioneering new developments in pedagogy
• embrace the use of new technologies in the classroom
• be skilled in behaviour for learning
• value creating an inspiring learning environment
• explore opportunities to further participation and achievement in your classroom
• be able to communicate well with children and young people, having an understanding of safeguarding and promoting the welfare of young people

• possess drive, expertise and enthusiasm
• be well-organised and disciplined when it comes to administrative duties possess an optimistic and resilient style when faced with pressure

All teachers at CFS commit to fully contributing to the ethos and life of the School in and outside the classroom.

Further information, including a Person Specification, is available in our job pack and also on our website.

Early applications are encouraged and we reserve the right to interview and appoint prior to the deadline.

What the school offers its staff

CFS is a happy, collaborative and forward thinking school for 4-16 year olds, where the personal development of our pupils is just as important as the academic curriculum. In our recent Ofsted, inspectors observed that CFS is a vibrant, ambitious and inclusive school, where our respectful and friendly pupils are thriving and are well prepared for their adult lives. Our values of ‘nurture, challenge and inspire’ influence everything we do as a school, and genuinely permeate all areas of school life. If you share our values and ideals, we strongly encourage you to find out more about CFS via a visit to the school or through our school website www.chichesterfreeschool.org.uk.

Whilst this is a Secondary post, there is something extremely unique and special about working in an All-Through environment; the successful candidate will have the opportunity to work creatively with colleagues from both phases helping to develop a cohesive and truly progressive educational experience for all learners. There may be opportunities for you to teach in the Primary phase of CFS in the future, if this was something you wished to pursue.

CFS follows national pay scales; this role would be equally suitable for an early career teacher or more experienced teacher. The Upper Pay Scale would be considered for the right candidate and on the agreement of a whole school responsibility in addition to the role outlined below.

Commitment to safeguarding

CFS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. In accordance with our Child Protection Policy we are unable to process applications without a fully completed application form. The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974. All convictions, cautions and bind-overs, including those regarded as ‘spent’ must be declared when applying. The applicant may post such a declaration in an envelope marked ‘Private & confidential for the Principal’. The successful applicant must obtain List 99 clearance and DBS clearance at enhanced level.

What skills and experience we're looking for

Barr’s Hill School is an outstanding school that is committed to Building Brighter Futures for all of its students.

A crucial part of Building Brighter Futures is providing a high-quality educational experience delivered through an academic curriculum and an exceptional programme of enriching experiences. We are looking to expand our team of dedicated professionals who excel in their field.

Opportunity

We are seeking to appoint an outstanding and motivated teacher to join our strong Science team. Your drive, determination, desire to make a difference, and student focused thinking is more important to us than your experience. We offer an environment where an ambitious and innovative teacher and future leader will thrive and progress. This post will suit an early career or experienced teacher with the talents and skills to enable our students to succeed. A leadership role could be possible for the right candidate. You will support our drive to create exceptional experiences and have an aptitude for working with students to overcome barriers to learning.
