• 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.

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.
