Dulwich Prep & Senior is an exciting place to work - with over 800 pupils, it is the largest boys’ prep school in the UK and is situated in one of the most beautiful parts of the world’s most cosmopolitan city.

We are committed to fostering a learning environment that encourages and celebrates continuous professional development (CPD), as we believe that a love for learning begins with our staff.

The school’s strength is its community: our staff, who are professional, passionate, and brilliantly collegiate; our pupils, who are inquisitive, challenging learners with a spring in their step, and our parents, who are hugely supportive, appreciative, and ambitious.

We are looking for an outstanding teacher to join our science department.

We invite applicants who are positive, team-oriented, and enthusiastic, with a strong understanding and knowledge of the GCSE syllabus across relevant exam boards (across all three sciences). Ideal candidates should also possess an innovative approach to challenging and engaging pupils.

Applications are invited from teachers who are able to demonstrate the following:

• QTS or PGCE qualification
• Ability to teach up to GCSE
• Willingness to become fully involved in the life of the School

The ideal candidate will be a specialist science teacher.

Dulwich Prep & Senior offers excellent facilities and resources for its staff and pupils, as well as supportive and energised colleagues, a commitment to professional development and staff wellbeing opportunities, and small class sizes.

Applications for this role must be completed via an application form, along with a cover letter explaining your suitability for this role and a completed Equal Opportunities form, which should be sent to Tamsin Hutson, HR Manager.

• Interviews: Week commencing 24 February 2025
• Start Date: September 2025

Dulwich Prep & Senior is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, and applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening and training appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers and an enhanced criminal record check through the Disclosure and Barring Service.

We are an equal opportunity employer and welcome applications from individuals of all backgrounds.
