A supportive and well-regarded Good-rated secondary school in Southend-on-Sea is seeking a committed and thoughtful Science Teacher to join their department for an immediate start. This is a full-time, permanent position within a Science Faculty that is stable, collaborative, and genuinely student-focused.
About the Role
You will teach Science across KS3–KS4, following carefully sequenced curriculum pathways that prioritise conceptual clarity, hands-on experimentation, and confident scientific explanation. There is strong technician provision in the department, meaning practical lessons are realistic and achievable rather than overwhelming.
The department works collectively, sharing:
* Lesson resources
* Assessment models
* Strategies for scaffolding and stretch

This is not a department where teachers work in isolation — the team meets weekly, reflects openly, and values professional trust.
School Culture
The school is known for:
* Calm, respectful student behaviour
* Consistent routines and strong pastoral support
* Leadership that listens and acts, rather than dictates
* A friendly staff community and positive morale
Teachers here describe the environment as steady, fair, and humane.
Ideal Candidate
* QTS (ECTs and experienced teachers welcome)
* Warm, calm classroom communicator
* Someone who values shared planning and reflection
Salary
MPS / UPS, dependent on experience.
