Are you ready to swap the lab for a legacy?
If you are a Science teacher who is tired of the exam factory mentality and wants to get back to why you started teaching:to spark curiosity and change lives:this is the leadership role youve been waiting for.
We are looking for a Science Lead who can bridge the gap between complex scientific concepts and the unique needs of learners with ASC and SEMH. We dont just teach Science; we use it as a tool to help young people re:engage with the world around them.
Strategy, Mentorship and Impact
This is a high:impact hybrid role designed for an educator who loves teaching but is ready for the next step in their career. You will receive dedicated weekly leadership release time to:
*
Shape the Vision: Take full ownership of the Science curriculum, ensuring it is hands:on, multi:sensory, and accessible across our Mansfield sites.
*
Empower Peers: Act as the expert in the room, coaching and mentoring colleagues to deliver world:class Science sessions through bespoke CPD.
*
Quality and Growth: Work with senior leaders to audit teaching quality, celebrate successes, and implement creative interventions to raise student attainment.
*
Teach with Purpose: Work directly with small groups and 1:to:1, proving that with the right approach, every student can experiment, learn, and succeed.
The Profile
You dont need to be a corporate manager; you need to be a brilliant teacher with a heart for SEN and a head for curriculum design.
*
The Essentials: You hold QTS and a relevant Level 6 qualification.
*
The Subject Matter: You have a deep toolkit of Science resources and the ability to simplify the complex.
*
The Drive: A valid driving licence and vehicle are required, as youll be the mobile face of Science across our local learning hubs (business insurance will be required).
*
The Mindset: You are a reflective practitioner who thrives on collaboration and sees the potential in every difficult day.
What We Offer You
Leadership shouldnt be lonely. Youll be part of a robust network of Curriculum Leads and receive direct, personal support from our Heads of Quality of Education to ensure you have the tools to succeed.
