Head of Chemistry
We are a five form, mixed, selective school graded Good in all categories by Ofsted. SRMS is proud of its reputation for being inclusive, friendly and welcoming and one that focuses as much on the development of the whole person as much as it does on academic progress.
We are seeking an enthusiastic and well qualified teacher to lead our very experienced and dynamic Chemistry Department. GCSE and A level results are very good in Chemistry, and it is a popular choice for A Level, with many of our students going on to study Chemistry, or a related degree, at leading universities.The person appointed will teach mostly Chemistry at GCSE and A Level, but they must be able and willing to teach general Science to KS3 if the need arose, and ideally a second science discipline to GCSE.
SRMS is a dynamic place to work, where both staff and students thrive because they are highly valued. Our students are bright, able and eager to learn, and due to our environment of excellent behaviour, teachers are able to teach their subjects to a high level.The School is situated in a beautiful area of Kent, close to both coast and rolling countryside. It is also close to the channel crossings at Dover and Ashford and has very good connections to London via the High Speed rail route to Kings Cross and the A2/M2 by car.
