- Job title:Teacher of Chemistry
- Job Type:Full-time, Permanent
- Salary:£38,663 - £65,199 per annum
- Department:Chemistry Department
- Reporting to:Head of Chemistry
- Location:Highgate, North London
- Start:September 2026
- Closing Date:26 January 2026 at 8:00 am
An enthusiastic and inspiring Chemistry graduate, or a closely related discipline, is required for September 2026 to teach at this academically selective, coeducational North London day school.
Applicants should be able to teach Chemistry with confidence to the most able Sixth Form pupils, as well as assist in top university applications. The school has significant experience in successfully training teachers who enter the profession without formal teaching qualifications and in providing suitable opportunities for continued professional development for experienced teachers. The school supports colleagues who wish to gain Qualified Teaching Status.
All pupils study Chemistry as a separate subject in Year 8 to Year 11, before following the Edexcel IGCSE course. A General Science course is taught in Year 7, to which all three science departments contribute and which all members of the Science Faculty can be expected to teach. The majority of pupils will take IGCSEs in all three sciences. In the last year of public examinations (2025), 99% of pupils taking IGCSE Chemistry achieved 7-9 grades, and 63% achieved the top grade 9. In the Sixth Form, the OCR A specification is taught and Chemistry is a popular choice for students, with six classes per year group. Standards of achievement in the Sixth Form are also high: around 80% of pupils achieve A* or A grades and a number of pupils receive offers from Oxbridge to read Chemistry or Natural Sciences each year (seven in 2025).
The department is located centrally within the school. There are four Chemistry laboratories (all with dedicated experimental areas), a departmental office and separate prep room. Three experienced technicians work in the Chemistry Department. The department invites guest speakers to the school, runs a rigorous and varied Sixth Form extension programme and organises a number of thriving societies that meet on a regular basis, including a Junior Science Club. Our Sixth Form students enter the annual RSC Olympiad and L6 Chemistry Challenge Competitions, where the majority will gain a medal: gold certificates were awarded to a quarter of our Y12 chemists in last year’s C3L6 paper.
Teachers in the department are passionate about Chemistry and are deeply committed to teaching the whole of the subject to their pupils. Looking beyond the limitations of examination specifications, they prioritise teaching concepts from first principles wherever possible, not just in the Sixth form but in all years, and seek out opportunities to broaden or deepen their own understanding through wider reading and intra-department discussions. They challenge their pupils to be academically independent and to show resilience in their pursuit of a solution to a problem.
Person Specification
Highgate School seeks to appoint teachers who will have, in addition to the professional qualities outlined below, the following proven personal qualities, or the potential to develop them. At interview, candidates will have the opportunity to demonstrate or give an account of these attributes.

Investigating the unconventional cytokine, interleukin-32 in chronic inflammation
Key information
Research topics
This is a summer student position supervised by Rose Hodgson in Zaeem Cader's lab.
Introduction to the science
The Cader lab is interested in the interplay between the immune system and metabolism in inflammatory disease. The incidence of autoimmune diseases such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease is rising worldwide, with no curative treatments currently available for IBD. An improved understanding of disease processes is urgently required to help identify more effective therapies that actively interrupt disease pathogenesis.
Chronic inflammatory diseases such as IBD are driven by a dysregulation of the immune system leading to excess inflammation and tissue damage. Immune homeostasis is maintained through the concerted action of numerous immune cell populations; for example, intraepithelial lymphocytes and tissue resident macrophages interact to maintain tolerance to foreign material across tissue environments. Such functions are energetically expensive and thus are critically dependent on cellular nutrient utilisation and metabolism. An over-looked aspect is how such immune cells sustain necessary energy metabolism, and consequently maintain immune homeostasis, under the relative hypoxic conditions of the intestine.
About the project
All cells, including immune cells, must sense and adapt to changing oxygen levels, such as the hypoxic environment of the gut. Recent genetic studies have highlighted that failure to appropriately respond to hypoxia potentially contributes to the development of chronic inflammatory conditions such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease. However, the mechanisms accounting for this are yet to be elucidated. Our lab is studying a novel, disease-linked oxygen sensing pathway that could explain the relationship between oxygen adaptation and immunoregulation. One of the targets of this pathway is the unconventional cytokine, IL-32. However, this has been extremely poorly characterised to date and barely anything is known regarding its mechanism of action.
Interleukin-32 (IL32) is an unconventional cytokine that is primarily produced by NK and T cells, however induced in many cell types after stimulation. Altered expression of IL32 is reported to be associated with inflammatory diseases including rheumatoid arthritis, dermatitis, and inflammatory bowel disease, as well as in cancer. Regulated by hypoxia, IL32 is implicated in proinflammatory signalling, macrophage differentiation and also in regulation of metabolism in plasma cells. There are multiple isoforms of IL32, however their regulation and action is unclear, and it is also unknown how IL32 is secreted, or which receptor is targeted. This project would contribute to addressing the research gap in understanding the role of IL32 in immune homeostasis, inflammation and disease, information which could provide value in bettering therapies that target disease pathogenesis rather than the symptoms.
Specifically, we plan to explore the different isoforms of IL32 in these different cell types and inflammatory conditions. To do this, the student would culture relevant cell lines and primary cells in vitro and use qPCR and western blots to characterise the expression of IL32 isoforms under different stimuli. Such stimuli could include hypoxia, LPS, and activating or tolerogenic cytokine conditions. The project aims to characterise the function of individual IL32 isoforms using genetic modification by CRISPR-Cas9 to knockout the IL32 gene, followed by subsequent addition of individual isoforms in vitro. Here the student may learn how to use genetic modification techniques such as CRISPR, sanger sequencing and molecular cloning. The student may need to explore co-cultures of different cell types from these genetic models to characterise the action of individual IL32 isoforms produced by specific cell types in an intrinsic and extrinsic manner. Finally, based on project progress, we may want to use other techniques to consider the function of IL32, which may include flow cytometric cell sorting, RNASeq and metabolic profiling assays. Ultimately, this project will shed light on the role of IL32 isoforms in inflammatory signalling in immune mediated diseases.
