Required for September 2025
St John’s is a very successful co-ed Catholic school with over 1300 pupils including over 300 students in our Sixth Form. We have an extremely strong Catholic ethos and pride ourselves in being a warm and welcoming community. Our recent Section 8 Inspection stated that - Pupils flourish in this inclusive school because staff provide high-quality care; Staff are consistently clear with their high expectations and Important values such as ‘excellence for all’ and ‘service to others’ underpin the ambitious culture in place. The school’s 2024 Progress 8 score of +0.11 was the seventh consecutive examination year where the school achieved a positive score on this key performance measure, and is a wonderful reflection of the talented and dedicated students and staff we have at the school.
We are looking to recruit a highly motivated, hard-working and enthusiastic member of staff who is looking to join our extremely high-performing and popular school. Applications are invited from well-qualified and passionate Science specialists for this opportunity to teach in our thriving Catholic community.

We have designed our curriculum to enable students to undertake either GCSE Double Science or Triple Science at Key Stage 4, whilst also offering traditional science A Levels (Biology, Chemistry & Physics) in our 6th Form, alongside Level 3 BTEC Applied Science.
