The Trustees are seeking to appoint a Teacher of Science for Sedgefield Community College with effect from September 2023.
Would you like to progress your career in an academy recently judged by OFSTED as ‘outstanding’, an academy where both student achievement and attitudes to learning are amongst the best in the entire North East and Cumbria region? Would you also like to work in a fantastic, recently built academy, set in one of County Durham’s most scenic areas? If the answer to each of these questions is ‘yes’ then Sedgefield Community College could be right for you.
We particularly welcome applications from those who will newly qualify in 2023 or are relatively new to the profession. This is an exciting opportunity for anyone wishing to commence and to progress their career in an outstanding and supportive Science faculty under the guidance of an outstanding Subject Leader.
If you are someone who has the ability to engage and enthuse students, coupled with the drive and commitment required to become a truly outstanding teacher, then we would like to hear from you.
