We are seeking a highly motivated, ambitious and skilled classroom practitioner with a passion for science to lead a strong team to even greater heights. The department consistently achieves strong results, and we wish to appoint an exceptional individual who has the necessary drive, expertise and inspirational attributes to improve outcomes further. The applicant must be able to nurture a passion for studying science at all levels of ability. The science curriculum has been reconsidered in recent years and provides an extremely solid base from which to extend the 'inspirational learning' mantra of the school. Science classrooms are well resourced with an innovative design to facilitate collaborative and active learning. Additionally, the department benefits from having a Lead Practitioner.
William Edwards is a large, successful, harmonious and thriving mixed 11-16 comprehensive school. Pupil outcomes across the school are historically strong. However, attending William Edwards is about so much more than just GCSE outcomes. We firmly believe that school days should be the best days of your life and that schools have a moral purpose to extend the life experiences of their pupils. That is why we boast the largest Duke of Edinburgh cohort of any school in the East of England, and we are also one of only two schools in the East of England to hold the Arts Mark Platinum Award. Character education and providing a wealth of different experiences to our pupils are important to us.
