Contract Term: Full Time, Permanent

We are looking for a dynamic and inspirational leader to take the helm of our outstanding Science department. You will lead a committed team of highly experienced teachers in delivering exceptional learning experiences for the students at Hasmonean High School. If you are a respected leader of science, have leadership and management experience and proven outstanding classroom practice, then we would like to hear from you. You are highly organised, knowledgeable in using data to support students and have the ability to communicate effectively with clarity and sensitivity to the school community. You enjoy leading, and being part of, a team, and can be flexible and creative in your approach.

Hasmonean High School has been rated as the leading non-selective state school in the country for four years in a row (The Times, 2012 -2015). The school was also judged to be Outstanding in every category by Ofsted (November 2012). All science subjects are popular as A Level with many students progressing to science based degrees.

First class academic results, broad extra-curricular programme and an ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted report.

At Hasmonean High School this comes as standard.

However, if we only offered excellent academic results, a broad extra-curricular programme and an ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted report, we would feel that we had failed as a school.

We believe in giving our students the tools they need to build their future.

“The school is one of the best schools in the country at outperforming expectations for their pupils and improving their future prospects. There is plenty that other schools could learn from Hasmonean High School’s success.”(Sue Williamson, Chief Executive of SSAT)
