Required from: January 2026
St Peter’s is an oversubscribed school, known as a high performing school and nationally recognised for our approaches to character education. Our most recent Ofsted inspection (‘Good’ November 2019 and SIAMS inspection (‘Excellent’ May 2019) indicate the significant progress we have made in developing well rounded students who ‘live life to the full’. As a Beacon School, Relational and Restorative Approaches are key to how we educate for a wise, courageous and compassionate community.
We are seeking to appoint a Teacher of Science from January 2026 (Maternity Cover) to teach KS4 (Majority Physics with some Chemistry) and KS3 (Biology, Chemistry and Physics), working in a friendly team. Science is a strength at St Peter’s where students enjoy a rich and varied curriculum. They achieve very high results and consistently make excellent progress.
Our students make working here a real pleasure, and as such we have high expectation for both our students and ourselves.
We offer:
1. A welcoming and friendly team of excellent staff.
2. A supportive working environment.
3. Students with a drive to succeed.
A willingness and ability to offer time and energy to our wellbeing programme &/or extra-curricular provision (which we believe adds significant value to our character based approaches to education, including our Duke of Edinburgh and Ten Tors), will be taken into consideration for applications.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and vulnerable adults, and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
This role requires a DBS disclosure.
This role requires the ability to fulfil all spoken aspects of the role with confidence and fluency in English.
