The science faculty has eight well-equipped laboratories. Each department receives a generous annual budget. All the laboratories are equipped with either interactive whiteboards or screens. The laboratories are serviced by a specialist technician foreach of chemistry, biology and physics. Each specialist technician reports directly to their head of department.

The role is offered on a part-time or full-time basis for the summer term of 2025.

The Department

Years 7 to 11 are taught in groups of up to 26 girls. At KS3 girls have one double lesson of biology each week. IGCSE work is started in year 9 and the main text book is Pearsons Edexcel IGCSE Biology. In years 10 and 11, the girls have three lessons of biology each week.

Edexcel examinations are taken at A level. Approximately 27 girls take A level biology each year. Each group has eight timetabled lessons in year 12 and eight in year 13.
