Key Responsibilities Include:
* Planning, preparing, and delivering highly effective and stimulating Science lessons across Biology, Chemistry, and/or Physics that cater to the diverse learning needs and high aspirations of our students across all relevant key stages.
* Fostering students' deep understanding of key scientific concepts, theories, and problem-solving techniques, with a strong emphasis on the comprehensive demands of the A-Level specifications.
* Encouraging rigorous analytical thinking, the construction of well-supported scientific arguments, and confident practical experimentation and data analysis.
* Assessing and tracking student progress in Science across all relevant key stages, providing insightful and constructive feedback, and implementing effective intervention strategies to ensure excellent outcomes, particularly for A-Level students.
* Contributing actively to the development, implementation, and rigorous review of the Science curriculum across all relevant key stages, ensuring alignment with examination specifications and providing extensive opportunities for scientific enrichment.
* Utilising and contributing to the development of high-quality Science resources, including practical equipment, digital simulations, and real-world application examples.
* Contributing to extracurricular activities that promote scientific understanding within the college community (e.g., science clubs, Olympiads, lecture visits at local university departments).

* A strong and up-to-date understanding of the A-Level Science curricula and relevant examination specifications.
* Exceptional pedagogical skills and the ability to differentiate instruction to meet the needs of all learners, particularly the academic rigour and depth required at Key Stage 5.
* A profound passion for Science and the ability to inspire and stretch students' critical thinking, analytical, and practical skills.
* Outstanding communication, interpersonal, and organisational skills.
* A steadfast commitment to the safeguarding and well-being of students and the promotion of scientific understanding within our vibrant Cambridge college community.
