Head Teacher: Jonathan Crone

Roll: 1056 (11-18 Mixed Comprehensive)

Required for September 2016

We seek to appoint a well-qualified and enthusiastic teacher of Science to join a supportive, highly regarded and successful department. The positon arises as a result of an expanding Science curriculum provision within the Academy and a significant increase in student uptake of ‘A’ level courses.

This post would suit a Physics or Chemistry specialist who is newly qualified or a more experienced teacher. You will be passionate about teaching Science and be able to enthuse our students to study at all levels. The selected candidate will be required to teach pupils of all abilities in KS3, KS4 and KS5. All classrooms are fitted with interactive whiteboards and multimedia equipment to aid teaching and learning.

Quarrydale is a stand-alone academy and its examination results have improved substantially over the past three years to beyond the national average in the gold standard 5A*-C (incl. E/M) category. If you enjoy teaching, feel that every child should have the opportunity to achieve their best and are able to further improve our examination results, we would really like to hear from you.

Please contact Phil Holmes, Head of Department, if you would like an informal discussion about the post and the Academy. For application forms and details please visit our website or send an A5 s.a.e. to Mrs Lauren Lane (PA to Headteacher).

Quarrydale is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. Therefore, the successful candidate will be required to undergo an enhanced DBS check.
