Job details

We are seeking to appoint a Teacher of Science at Gospel Oak School who is aligned with our mission to support social justice through exceptional schools, our values and our distinctive culture. You must have a passion for working in challenging circumstances, in an area of high deprivation and be keen to improve the life chances of all the students. The ability to teach physics to at least GCSE would be an advantage.

This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious teacher looking for your next challenge. As a small but growing Trust we are continually developing roles, we invest in our staff and can provide a clear pathway along with the appropriate level of support suited to your experience level. We will work with you to create an individual professional development plan with specific CPD which is appropriate to your career stage.

We are a rapidly improving school and Ofsted stated that ‘Pupils and staff agree that Gospel Oak School is a school that is transformed. Pupils behave well. It is a calm place, where pupils feel safe. Relationships between staff and pupils are warm. Pupils’ attendance is strong. Pupils welcome the changes to their school. They are proud that they have been a part of that change by meeting the school’s expectations, developing positive attitudes and treating each other with respect.’ (October 2025).

At Gospel Oak, we believe in the transformative power of education and are committed to social justice. Our mission is to ensure that every student, regardless of background or ability, receives an exceptional education. Our core values—Respect, Pride, and Aspiration—are embedded in everything we do.
