Harrow, United Kingdom Whitefriars School Full time

Whitefriars School is a fully integrated 3 to 18 all-through school. In May 2018 our school was judged by OFSTED to be outstanding. In September 2021 we opened our Sixth Form.

We are now looking for a positive, dynamic and resilient Senior Science Lead to join our fantastic team in our secondary section. 

We believe in loving and cherishing our students, we also have the same ethos for our staff. We have a well-being strategy where we ensure we do everything we can to support and develop our staff. Some of the examples are:

We have an active well-being groupPlace2B which is counselling service for all staffSupportive middles leaders and leadership teamFree use of touch screen luxury coffee & hot chocolate machine for all staffRegular staff well-being reviewsExceptional paid leave allowance to support with childcare. In addition, 1 day paid for celebration events such as: wedding/trip/graduation per annumAssessment and marking policy that has reduced the workload outside of school.


The growth mind-set underpins everything we do. We do not believe that some pupils are bright and that others are not. We believe in the limitless capacity for everyone to achieve great things. We believe that what we become and what we achieve comes from great teaching, hard work and fantastic support. We do not allow it to come from your background. We are looking for a Senior Science Lead who shares this mindset and who is passionate and motivated by these beliefs.

Our pupils make rapid progress and achieve academic excellence in an environment of love and care. Our school is a strong family where expectations are high, values are positive and children are treasured. Our goal is to equip our pupils with the knowledge, skills and character to lead successful lives.

We provide pupils with a curriculum of the highest quality. We have new state-of-the art buildings with a wide range of extensive facilities. Our pedagogical approach is rooted in the science of how children learn. We ask lots of questions, we explain in small steps, we link to prior learning and we guide first practice. Our pupils think hard about their learning. We read a lot because it has a profound impact on educational outcomes.

Our teachers get to know the pupils as individuals and build meaningful relationships that last. We ensure that all of our pupils feel they belong. We explicitly teach our pupils to live by positive shared values and to hold these deep in their hearts. We are a Rights Respecting Gold accredited school. This creates our wonderful learning environments and great behaviors'. We offer a wide range of innovative clubs.

We maintain a great work-life balance. 

 An equal opportunities employer.

The Heathland Whitefriars Federation is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. This post is subject to a Disclosure Barring Service check.
