Teacher of Science - The King’s School
- Multiple Locations
- Multiple Terms
- MPS1 - UPS3

To start September 2025
Fixed term for 1 year in the first instance (there is a strong possibility that this post will become permanent)
The King's School is an outstanding 11-18 comprehensive school, which takes great pride in the promotion of excellence in teaching and learning, pastoral care and extra-curricular activities. Our core purpose of 'Achievement for All' encourages every student to develop their skills, interests and talents, not just through academic achievement but also through a rich variety of enrichment opportunities including house competitions, extra-curricular clubs, trips and visits.
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic science teacher. A Level teaching will be available for a suitably qualified candidate in their specialism. The successful candidate will need to teach at least two science specialisms at key stage 4 and all specialisms at key stage 3. It is important to us to have an enthusiastic and engaging teacher of science who will join and enrich our strong teaching team. The extra-curricular provision is also very strong with a thriving and successful Science Club, a F1 in Schools group, as well as a host of ‘gifted and talented’ activities and curriculum-based trips and visits.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone to join a very experienced and supportive department with a commitment to deliver practical science. Due to the success of the subject at key stage 4 and key stage 5, a desire to develop the ability to deliver science at A Level would be an advantage. We offer a very strong support programme for teachers who are starting their career and working towards ECT status or returning to teaching after a break.
When applying for the role, it is important that you refer to the school's Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy and the DBS Disclosure Policy, which can be found on our website (About Us – Policy Documents). We are committed to safeguarding the welfare of students, so all staff are enhanced DBS checked.
Please contact Mrs Pocock at recruitment@thekings.devon.sch.uk for further details or see our website, The King's School Devon, to apply online.
Please apply by 9am on the closing date.
Interview Date: Week beginning 24th February 2025
