Head of Biology - Full Time Permanent

TLR 2 (£4,000)

Codsall High is a comprehensive school for Years 9 to 13 situated in a semi-rural area of Staffordshire near Wolverhampton. It has over a thousand students on roll and almost three hundred in its highly successful sixth form.

We are looking for a dynamic and inspirational Head of Biology to join our school in September 2024 to lead the development of the curriculum for GCSE and A Level Biology, and support the Head of Science in the delivery of the wider improvement plans for the subject.

The ability to teach GCSE and A Level Biology is essential and the ability to teach Combined Science is advantageous.

The post would suit an exceptional teacher who is looking to take the next step in their career or an existing middle leader with the skills and expertise to help the department on their journey to become outstanding. We will also consider applications from exceptional teacher who may feel they are a year away from this next step and help you prepare to take on the role in the next year.  The successful candidate will be passionate about education and demonstrate excellent teaching and learning in the classroom.

To arrange an informal discussion about the post or visit to the school please contact Miss Williams, the Headteacher’s PA on dwl@sslp.uk.

Completed application forms with a letter of application should be sent to Mrs Straw on jobs@sslp.uk

The closing date for receipt of applications is Monday 14th October 9am.
