The Role
A thriving Secondary Academy in Salisbury is seeking a professional, mathematically minded, and exceptionally organised Physics Specialist to join their prominent Science faculty. This is a premier opportunity to work within a well-structured and supportive school environment where physics is a highly popular option at Key Stage 5, backed by extensive laboratory equipment arrays and dedicated technical engineering support.
The successful candidate will provide day-to-day instructional leadership across Key Stages 3, 4, and 5. The timetable will involve delivering a rich, challenging curriculum covering Newtonian mechanics, field theories, quantum phenomena, and nuclear astrophysics for GCSE and A-Level exam cohorts, alongside delivering general science modules across Key Stage 3. Beyond classroom teaching, responsibilities include constructing comprehensive student tracking portfolios, implementing targeted intervention tracks for technical data fluency, managing laboratory asset logs, and supporting the school's regional engineering challenges and astronomy societies.
