Science Technician

We are looking to recruit a Science Technician to support the science department after the departure of our longstanding technician. We have four science labs and our science team is made up of primary and secondary practitioners.

As a Science Technician you will support the staff and pupils in the laboratories and assist in the preparation of chemicals for demonstrations and practical lessons. You will also need to ensure the equipment is checked and maintained in line with Health& Safety policies. Previous experience of working within a laboratory an advantage.

Our academy provides a unique opportunity to teach both key stage two and key stage three children. We work with children age 9 - 13 (Y5 - Y8) and this age range enables us to put the curriculum at the heart of what we do. There are no national tests orexams at the end of key stage three and this empowers teachers to focus on driving a broad and balanced curriculum.

Our aim is to ensure that through the highest quality teaching of a broad, balanced and challenging curriculum in a stimulating environment, each pupil flourishes. With an excellent pastoral care system, we foster an environment where children feel safeand able to learn. We are a community that values each child and provides them with the opportunity to fulfil their potential and enjoy learning. We believe in building a child’s confidence, adaptability and resilience for the future within an ordered andstructured environment, where high expectations are a habit
