Teacher of Science

We are looking to recruit a Teacher of Science who shares our vision and ambitions for the young people of this community.

Tibshelf Community School is a successful, oversubscribed 11-16 school with 814 students on roll.  We are situated close to Chesterfield on the edge of the Peak District National Park and have good transport links, being close to the M1.   

The Science Faculty has an established track record at GCSE, and we now want to build on this solid foundation and move forward to provide even greater experiences for our pupils.

The post provides a great opportunity for a talented teacher of science to advance their own career and professional development by joining a successful, cohesive team in a forward-looking school, judged Good by OFSTED, at an exciting time in its development.  Applications are welcome from Early Career Teachers, as well as experienced teachers, who are able to teach science throughout the ability range at KS3 and KS4.

If you are interested in applying for the post, you are strongly encouraged to come to Tibshelf Community School to have a look around and informally meet staff and pupils.  Please contact Mrs Tracey Johnston-Shaw (recruitment@tibshelf.derbyshire.sch.uk)  to arrange a visit.

We hope that what we are aspiring to do here will enthuse and excite you too.

Tibshelf Community School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff to share this commitment. All staff and volunteers are required to undertake a criminal record check via the DBS before they can be appointed.
