Science Teacher - Colchester
A well-established Good-rated secondary school in Colchester is seeking a dedicated Science Teacher to join their dynamic Science department for an immediate start . The school is looking for a teacher who is enthusiastic, grounded, and able to deliver consistently strong lessons that inspire scientific thinking and academic curiosity.
About the Role
You will teach KS3–KS4 Science using well-structured schemes of work that support coherent progression and reduce workload.

Desire to work collaboratively
Motivated to support whole-school ethos
Salary
MPS/UPS.
