Salary: GBP32,916 : GBP45,352 (M1 : M6)
Contract: Full:Time, Permanent Term Time Only
The Challenge: Make Science Unforgettable
We believe that a diagnosis should never be a barrier to discovering how the world works. We are searching for a Science Lead who is part educator, part mentor, and part innovator.
In this role, you will be the driving force behind a Science curriculum that is as unique as our learners. You'll move away from traditional lecture:style teaching, instead focusing on experiential, multi:sensory learning that captures the imagination of students with SEMH, ASC, and complex learning needs.
Your Leadership Journey
This is a hybrid leadership position that keeps you connected to the classroom while giving you the autonomy to steer the subject's direction.
