Q - Are you a Physics Teacher with an unwavering passion for pupil progress?

Q - Are you looking for a school that genuinely values staff wellbeing and work-life balance?

If so, EdEx - Education Recruitment might have the perfect Physics Teacher role for you! Please read on below to find out more about the school and the Physics Teacher role.

EdEx - Education Recruitment is exclusively working with a 'Good' graded secondary school in Newham to find a Physics Teacher, with various TLRs attached to the post, depending on your strengths and interests, e.g., curriculum development, pastoral work, etc. We are seeking an ambitious, enthusiastic, and down-to-earth teacher to join the school's outstanding Physics department. This is a permanent contract position, directly employed by the school (no supply or short-term contracts), starting in September 2025.

The school has a long list of recent achievements and benefits, including but not limited to:

• TES Secondary School of the Year nominee (two years running)
• A two-week October half-term break
• Exceptional CPD opportunities, including part-funded MA study and a wide variety of progression opportunities (no glass ceiling!)
• Exceptionally well-resourced department and school, including a staff gym and much more!

Ideally, you will be an outstanding practitioner in your own right. Perhaps you've found it hard to progress at your current school, your commute might be too long, or you find your current school's demands unrealistic. If so, we believe this Physics Teacher role could be perfect for you!
