Teacher of Science (MPS/UPS)

The Science Department works closely with other Departments in the school, including Mathematics and Technology. Some staff contribute to a range of subjects across teams, where expertise and interest is shown and development of skills overlap.

The Science department at Kesgrave currently has over 20 teaching staff supported by an excellent technician team. Lessons are taught in purpose built and well-resourced labs including a Science ICT suite and a departmental staff room. We have a collegiate and highly experienced team of subject specialists across all areas of the curriculum.

Kesgrave High School is a large 11-18 school which has over 1870 students on roll including over 330 students in the Sixth Form. In 2026 the performance of the whole school was strong with 69% of pupils achieving a Grade 4 or higher in both English and Mathematics and 47% 5+.

Applications would be welcome from talented teachers at all levels of experience, including ECTs.

Staff benefit from excellent conditions of service and we are committed to personalised CPD and career opportunities both within our school and the Trust.

We are proud to be part of East Anglian Schools Trust (EAST) alongside Farlingaye High School, Bungay High School, Castle East School, Holbrook Academy, EAST SCITT, and six primary schools Aldeburgh, Wickham Market, Easton, Kyson, Leiston and Saxmundham with whom we work closely with.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. DBS checks required for all posts.
