About The Role

We are seeking a dedicated and skilled Science Teacher to join our team at the Lodestar Academy. As a Science Teacher, you will be responsible for delivering high-quality teaching and learning experiences to our students, who have been unable to sustain a place in mainstream education.

By prioritising academic achievement and introducing behaviour interventions and therapeutic support where necessary, it will enable them to re-integrate at the same key stage as their peers, and go on to access opportunities into employment and further education.
