About TrustEd Schools

Church Stretton School is proud to be part of TrustEd Schools, a Shropshire multi-academy trust comprising five secondary and four primary schools. As part of this family of schools, we benefit from strong collaboration and shared expertise, while retaining our own close-knit identity and distinctive character.

We are ambitious for our young people and committed to raising aspirations so that every student can fulfil their potential. Equally, we value our staff highly: colleagues are trusted, supported and encouraged to develop, enabling rewarding careers and meaningful professional impact.

The role

We are looking for an enthusiastic, ambitious and forward-thinking Teacher of Science, with all specialisms welcome, to join our successful and supportive department. Above all, we are looking for an excellent classroom teacher who is passionate about science, brings professional energy to their work and is ambitious about their own development.

You will teach across Key Stages 3 and 4, contributing to a carefully sequenced curriculum that builds secure knowledge over time and develops students’ curiosity, scientific thinking and confidence in applying their understanding. You will join an experienced and collaborative team with high expectations for students and a shared commitment to excellent science teaching.

We are particularly interested in teachers who are keen to keep improving and want to grow their experience and their career. You might be early in your career and looking for a school in which you can develop rapidly, or an experienced teacher ready for your next professional challenge. Either way, we are looking for someone with the potential and ambition, over time, to become increasingly influential within the department and wider school. For the right candidate, who can bring particular expertise and make a significant contribution to the department, an enhancement may be available.

The department places a strong emphasis on clear explanations, purposeful practical work and helping students develop the confidence to tackle increasingly complex scientific ideas. Shared curriculum materials and clear schemes of learning support consistency, collaboration and manageable workload, while giving teachers the professional space to develop and refine their practice.

At Church Stretton School, we want talented teachers to grow with us. You will be supported to develop your practice, broaden your experience and explore opportunities to contribute to the department and wider school as your career develops. Across the school and wider Trust, we are committed to developing our staff and creating opportunities for future leadership at all levels.

If you are a great Science teacher who wants to keep getting better, broaden your experience and build your career in a school where your contribution will be valued, we would love to hear from you.

The closing date for all applications is Monday 19th October 2026 at 9am.

Interviews will take place on Wednesday 21st October 2026. Applicants are encouraged to apply early as the school may start the interview process before the closing date.
