The main responsibilities will involve managing the preparation and clearing of equipment for practical science each week; managing a fully stocked science prep room, including the maintenance and monitoring of science equipment and resources and keeping the department health and safety policy up to date.

Staff benefits:

• Professional development that is of a national standard. In Ofsted’s words: “Staff morale is exceptionally high. They enjoy working at the school and benefit from high-quality training. Teachers new to the profession feel very well supported in settling into the school quickly and developing their practice.”
• Discounted membership of the Kensington Leisure Centre.
• A two-week half term holiday in October.
• 180 school days, 10 training days (not 5 as you find in most schools) & 5 planning days per year, which include the opportunity for teachers to work from home.
• Free breakfast and lunch for all staff.
• Free weekly staff wellbeing activities; yoga, circuits, salsa, football and more.
• Access to an Employees Assistance Programme, for anyone who may need additional support.
