Our School
Salesian is a co-educational 11-18 Catholic comprehensive school and is part of the Xavier Catholic Education Trust.
Standards at the school are very high and students achieve exceptionally well. In last year’s GCSE examinations 47% of all grades were 7-9, 92% 4-9 and our overall Progress 8 was +0.96. At A’ level 32% of grades were A*-A and 68% A*-B.
The school has 1400 students and is situated on two sites approximately one mile apart, near to the centre of Chertsey. The main school is situated at Guildford Road and our Sixth Form College has 467 students on its own site at Highfield Road.
The Social Science Department at Salesian
The Social Science Department at Salesian is a dynamic and progressive department which has learning and teaching at the heart of everything it does, this is evidenced by the number of students who go on to study Social Science subjects at university. The Social Science department offers a range of subjects including Sociology, Psychology, Health and Social Care and the introduction of the new T Level in Childcare and Education in September 2021.
We are exceptionally proud of our results:
* 73% A*-B at A2 Sociology
* 85% A*-B at A2 Psychology
* 100% D*-M at BTEC Health and Social Care
We are seeking to appoint a specialist in Psychology. The successful candidate will bring with them passion for their subject area and an ability to engage with students to develop our successful and growing department. A Level Psychology follows the AQA examination board specification, and we would normally expect to have four classes across year 12 and 13.
The school plays a lead role in the Teach South East SCITT and we therefore have opportunities for colleagues at all stages of their career development from NQTs to those seeking positions of responsibility such as mentoring, training, and developing others.
This School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The Successful applicant will be required to undertake an enhanced check via the Disclosure and Barring Service.
