For September 2024 we are seeking a highly qualified teacher of Chemistry at this 11-18 grammar school with a co-educational Sixth Form. This post offers an exciting opportunity for someone looking to teach in an innovative and high achieving school.
We have 1370 students, of which 450 are in the Sixth Form. In November 2019 the school was judged to be Outstanding in a full section 5 inspection under the new Education Inspection Framework. It is regarded as one of the leading grammar schools in the country. As lead in the Teaching School Hub – Buckinghamshire, we provide an exciting range of professional development opportunities.
The Science Team at DCGS is committed to the provision of a stimulating teaching and learning environment for our highly motivated and able students. Science subjects are extremely popular and a forward-thinking approach over a number of years has not only provided funding for improved accommodation and resources but has also increased opportunities for staff and curriculum development. Last year we opened four new leading-edge, innovative laboratories. This has extended the provision of science and further inspired the teaching and learning of all. Initiatives involving the network of county secondary schools, partner schools, industrial links and the local community have all been successfully established. In addition, the Science Team is recognised as providing excellent support.
The Science team consists of sixteen staff organised within four subject teams:
Chemistry, Biology, Physics and Electronics. Each has a Subject Team Leader; one Subject Leader is also the Curriculum Area Team Leader for Science reporting to the Deputy Headteacher. This role is currently filled by the Subject Leader for Physics. The science department is also supported by a dedicated team of science technicians.
We also offer:-
- engaging, able and well-motivated students
- an innovative approach to learning
- outstanding facilities in every subject
- a friendly working environment
