The Role

Reporting to the Head of Physics (via Head of Science) or the Head of Mathematics, you will be responsible for teaching throughout the school, from Year 9 through to A-Level.

Communication & Professionalism

  • Reporting: Writing insightful reports and maintaining proactive communication with parents regarding pupil progress.
  • Development: Participating in the school’s Professional Development Review system and staying current with pedagogical advancements.

About You

The successful candidate will be an academic enthusiast with a genuine desire to inspire high-achieving pupils. We are looking for specialists in either Physics or Mathematics, or versatile teachers capable of contributing to both departments.

Essential Skills & Qualities

  • Qualifications: An excellent Honours degree in Physics, Mathematics, or a closely related field.
  • Teaching Ability: A track record of (or clear potential for) outstanding classroom management and the ability to communicate complex concepts with clarity and sensitivity.
  • Inspiration: The ability to motivate pupils to pursue these subjects at the highest levels, including successful applications to Oxbridge and elite global universities.
  • Resilience: The stamina and emotional intelligence required to thrive in a busy, 24/7 boarding school environment.
  • Interpersonal Skills: Excellent rapport with pupils and the ability to work collaboratively within a large, diverse staff body.
  • Inclusion: A firm commitment to safeguarding and promoting an inclusive culture with equality of opportunity for all.

What We Offer
