Science Teacher
UPS/MPS
We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic teacher of Science to join our strong team in the Somervale Science department. The Science team is committed to inspiring a love of the subject and achieving excellent outcomes for all our students. We are a highly aspirational school with most students following a separate science curriculum.
Somervale School is a very popular, high achieving, 11 to 18 mixed comprehensive school situated in Midsomer Norton on the outskirts of Bath and on the edge of Somerset. The school occupies a large attractively landscaped site with an excellent range of specialist accommodation and facilities. We are part of the Midsomer Norton School Partnership, a multi-academy trust consisting of 39 Schools.
We are an extremely successful medium sized school and that makes us unique in the local area. We have all the benefits of any other school with the added bonus of an attention to detail that you simply cannot achieve in a larger school. We place our students at the heart of everything that we do. We believe in working hard, being kind and enjoying learning. The school received its third judgement of Good by Ofsted in June 2022 and its high quality academic curriculum and excellent student engagement and pastoral care was noted.
You will:
- Be committed to exceptional standards of support for our learners
- Be able to motivate, challenge and inspire students to achieve their best
- Be able to establish and develop outstanding relationships with students and staff
- Be a team player able to contribute to key leadership decisions
- Contribute to our core vision and values
We can offer you:
- A forward looking and innovative school
- A school with outstanding behaviour and safety for all
- Good facilities for teaching and learning
- Leading edge professional development support to improve your practice
- A school where care, guidance and support are central to ensuring students make outstanding progress
- A school where learning is really personalised
