Teacher of Biology and Chemistry
- Job Summary
-
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a Teacher of Biology and Chemistry to start in January 2026.
Since January 2020 both departments have been based in Brighton’s new £55 million School of Science and Sport. Amongst a host of other world-class facilities, the building includes six dedicated biology laboratory spaces, six dedicated laboratory spaces for chemistry and ample administrative and technical workspace for staff. Both departments have a well-resourced preparation room with their own dedicated technician.
There are 18 members of staff across the two departments, both having their own Head of Department and a Deputy. Both teams are from a diverse range of backgrounds, including industry and academic research (through which some hold doctorates).
Both departments have a comprehensive Oxbridge programme, with much recent success in this area: in the last four years a total of 21 pupils have secured offers to study Biology and Chemistry.
The Biology DepartmentThe department has exclusive use of six very new laboratories and a preparation room on the top floor of the recently opened School of Science and Sport. The practical emphasis to teaching in the department is further supported by a dedicated glasshouse classroom and an experimental space on the roof of the building.
Public examination results are consistently outstanding. In 2025, 96% of pupils taking biology GCSE achieved a grade 8 or 9 at GCSE (68% 9) and 86% A*-A at A-level (49% A*). The department also has a very comprehensive support programme for candidates applying to Oxbridge and medicine, with much recent success in this area. Last Year 7 candidates went to Cambridge for medicine or biological natural sciences.
We have a range of activities to explore biology beyond the syllabus, including regular extension activities, external speakers, excellent links to local medical schools and universities, sixth form fieldwork days, and successful participation in national Biology competitions and events.
The Chemistry DepartmentThe subject is taught throughout Years 7 to 13. GCSE cohorts average around 210 pupils, with around 80 pupils per year group selecting the subject at A-level. It has consistently been the second most popular A-level subject at the College in recent years behind maths and has a very even gender split, with girls being in a very slight majority. At present we follow the Edexcel syllabuses for both the reformed 9-1 GCSE and A-level. Public examination results in recent years have been outstanding, achieving 97% 9-8 at GCSE (including 76% 9), and 89% A*-A (including 58% A*) at A-level in 2025.
Extension and enrichment activities abound in the department. Each year over 50 pupils take part in the RSC Olympiad and Cambridge Chemistry Challenge; both have seen a record number of ‘gold’ and ‘roentgenium’ awards, respectively.
Significant success is also achieved further down the school. In 2024 the Brighton College team was crowned national champions of the RSC Top of the Bench competition, and in each of the past five years a team of pupils have made it to the regional final of the Year 10 Chemistry Challenge and as of this year, we are the reigning regional champions. Weekly extension clubs for KS3, KS4 and KS5 pupils are also extremely well attended. Overall, Chemistry is one of the most vibrant and dynamic departments at the College.
Role SpecificationThe successful candidate will be expected to teach both subjects to GCSE and at least one of the subjects to A-level.
An ability to contribute towards both departments extension programmes, including a willingness to support pupils with applications to leading universities (including Oxford and Cambridge), will be a distinct advantage.

Head of Biology
- Job Summary
-
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a Head of Biology to start in late April 2026.
The Department
The Biology department is part of one of the country’s leading Science departments in terms of results, facilities and educational innovation. Since January 2020 the department has been based in Brighton’s new £55 million School of Science and Sport. Amongst a host of other world-class facilities, the building includes six dedicated biology laboratory spaces, ample dynamic storage and technical workspace for staff. The department has a well-resourced preparation room with its own dedicated technician.
The team consists of 10 members of staff (including the Head of Department, and a Deputy) from a range of diverse backgrounds. The subject is taught as a separate science at KS3, and all pupils study all three sciences at GCSE, with the majority taking the separate sciences pathway for which they achieve very strong results at A-Level. At present we follow the Edexcel syllabus for GCSE and OCR A Biology for A-Level. Results in recent years have been excellent, with pupils achieving Grade 9s at 68% and 96% A*-B at A-Level, with 96% Grades 8–9 at GCSE and 86% A*-A at A-Level in August 2025.
The department also has a comprehensive co-curricular offering. Pupils have secured 16 Oxbridge offers in biology related course in the past two years. Departmental activities and standards are high, and we pride ourselves in the richness and workings of the universe. By taking pupils beyond the constraints of the syllabus, the department aims to develop their problem solving and analytical skills in preparation for the rigorous undergraduate study. In recent years, pupils have achieved an abundance of awards in the British Biology Olympiad competitions.
The department also offers a wide range of extra-curricular activities such as weekly Science Club, Med Soc and an annual trip to Wakehurst Place.
Role SpecificationThe successful candidate will be responsible for the leadership, development and delivery of all aspects of the Biology department, as well as ensuring the highest standards of teaching and learning. They will lead a team of enthusiastic and highly motivated teachers in their progress and career development.
They will be an outstanding classroom practitioner who can inspire others by the passion they have, communicate their love of Biology, and translate this into a curriculum which instils creativity, diversity and challenge amongst all pupils. They will devise and oversee the department’s extension programme: this will include supporting pupils with applications to leading universities (including Oxford and Cambridge).
Additionally, all teachers at Brighton College are expected to contribute to the school’s pastoral system, generally as a tutor in one of our 16 houses (of which six are boarding houses and ten are day).
There is also an expectation that all teachers will contribute to the cocurricular life of the school, through the extensive Games programme, and/or through the leadership of one of almost 100 school societies.
Candidates are encouraged to point to interests and enthusiasms as part of their application. All staff have the opportunity to contribute to our supercurricular Masterclass programme; this is a series of sessions focusing on an area of personal academic or cultural interest. These have included subjects such as Magical Realism, Cuisine and Culture and Great Debates in History.
All teachers joining Brighton will have the benefit of guidance by an experienced mentor, whose role it will be to provide support during their probationary period. Thereafter, all teachers are expected and supported to participate in continuous professional development, throughout their time at the College.

Teacher of Russian
- Job Summary
-
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a Teacher of Russian to start in late April 2026.
The Department
Languages continue to thrive at Brighton College, with the vibrant Russian department playing a key role in that success. The department currently consists of two members of teaching staff, as well as a native speaking assistant. The subject is offered to all year groups in the school, with separate sets in Year 9 for experienced learners and beginners. Russian remains a popular choice of language for non-native speakers, with heritage and native speakers prepared for examinations separately via a bespoke programme.
We follow the Edexcel syllabus for GCSE and A-level, and results in recent years have been excellent. Last year, 100% achieved 9-8 at GCSE, and 100% have achieved an A* at A-level for the past two years. Another point of pride is the amount of sixth form pupils continuing the subject at university, with several securing places at Oxbridge. This is an exciting opportunity to join a relatively young department, helping to promote an unusual language option that attracts curious and committed pupils, but needs passionate and dynamic teachers to promote it. Teaching Russian at Brighton College is a varied and rewarding experience, from helping pupils take their first steps with the Cyrillic alphabet, to teaching advanced cultural and linguistic topics to small groups of highly motivated Sixth Form pupils. The department has also offered a trip to Tallinn in Estonia in the February half term, where pupils have attended Russian language classes in addition to sightseeing.
Role SpecificationThe successful candidate will be expected to teach Russian across the curriculum, from Year 7 to Year 13 and to be an advocate for the learning of the language at every opportunity. A drive to help pupils achieve the best possible public examination results, and the ability to convince pupils of the merits of learning Russian, will be crucial.
A willingness to support pupils with applications to leading universities (including Oxford and Cambridge), will be an advantage, as would the willingness to lead and expand the current programme of trips. The ability to offer an additional foreign language, particularly German, would also be an advantage, but this is by no means essential.
Additionally, all teachers at Brighton College are expected to contribute to the school’s pastoral system, generally as a tutor in one of our 16 houses (of which six are boarding houses and ten are day). There is also an expectation that all teachers will contribute to the cocurricular life of the school, through the extensive Games programme, and/or through the leadership of one of almost 100 school societies.

All staff have the opportunity to contribute to our supercurricular Masterclass programme; this is a series of sessions focusing on an area of personal academic or cultural interest.

Post-Graduate Assistant Teacher of Sport
- Job Summary
- Brighton College is seeking to a Post-Graduate Assistant Teacher of Sport, with a specialism in rugby, netball, hockey, cricket football, swimming, or strength and conditioning, to start in August 2026. This is a fixed-term role, until 31 August 2027.The Department
The sports department consists of 10 members of permanent teaching and coaching staff, typically 10+ assistant teachers who support the delivery of the games programme, and a dedicated Sports Logistics Coordinator. It has been responsible for numerous international stars including former cricket Ashes winners and current England, and British and Irish Lions players as well as an impressive list of professional athletes, and British and European champions.
Based in the astonishing new School of Science and Sport, a very wide and varied games programme is offered. All pupils participate in twice weekly games sessions, with supplementary sessions for the representative squads in the core sports of athletics, cricket, football, hockey, netball and rugby. Recent successes include National Rosslyn Park Rugby 7s and St Joseph’s College Festival winners, national netball finalists, numerous international athletics vests, Sussex and South East Hockey League champions at U18 and Sussex County Cricket champions.
Physical Education is also taught as an academic subject from the Lower Fifth (Year 10) upwards. At present we follow the AQA syllabus for GCSE in the Fifth Form and offer a BTEC Level 3 National Diploma in Sport in the Sixth Form.
Role SpecificationPGATs are considered integral members of the sport department and will be expected to be assisting with and leading sports sessions from their first day. They will typically be coaching up to 11 games sessions per week and be responsible for at least one competitive team each term, including weekend fixtures. There will also be the opportunity to gain experience of some classroom teaching of academic P.E, under the guidance of the main experienced teacher, as well as assisting in covering for absent colleagues across all College departments.
Away from sport, they will be expected to be a co-tutor for a group of pupils in a house. This involves overseeing registration, pastoral time, parent liaison and report writing, under the guidance of a more experienced colleague. They will also take responsibility for one evening duty per week in the boarding house they are attached to, as well as being involved in delivering other aspects of the boarding programme, such as evening activities in the SSS.
This varied and engaging set of responsibilities generates a wide range of experience which sets PGATs up extremely well for moving onto full teaching roles in due course.
Person SpecificationWe are seeking to appoint a candidate with the ability to coach at least one of a number of our key sports to a good level: rugby, netball, hockey, cricket, football, swimming or has appropriate qualifications and experience in strength and conditioning. The ideal candidate would have participated in their sport through school, clubs or university, either through playing to 1st team level or gaining some coaching experience in these environments.
We expect candidates to be able to demonstrate clear potential to operate effectively in coaching sport to teenagers, delivering pastoral care and making a contribution to other areas of school life. We do not expect candidates to have experience of all these areas, but those without direct experience should make it clear in their application the skills and experiences which will enable them to thrive in these
areas.Candidates typically come to these roles either directly from university, from professional sport or from other employment. Those on a ‘sandwich’ year during a university course will be considered, but the preference is for candidates who might be able to offer more than one year to the College. Candidates who are successful in their first year with us are often supported through an on-the-job PGCE in their second year, enabling them to progress to a full-time teaching role as a fully qualified teacher 24 months after starting.
Ultimately, we are looking for individuals who foster a passion for learning and who can demonstrate an ability and genuine desire to develop pupils to their fullest potential. Successful candidates will be self-reliant and adaptable, with high levels of initiative. Candidates should have a strong academic record, ideally including a degree related to sport, although this is not a necessity if extensive involvement in sport through other means can be demonstrated.

Mandarin Language Assistant
- Job Summary
-
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a Mandarin Language Assistant to start in August 2026.
The Department
Brighton College is a sector leader when it comes to the teaching of Mandarin. It has been compulsory subject from 2006 for all pupils in Year 7 and 8 and the department consists of three members of staff. There are currently 40 non-native pupils taking the subject at GCSE, with a strong proportion of pupils choosing to continue the subject into Sixth Form. There are also a large number of native or heritage Chinese pupils learning the subject off timetable.
At present we follow the AQA syllabus for GCSE and the Edexcel Chinese A-level course, as well as HSK4 in the Sixth Form. The results in recent years have been excellent, achieving 100% 9-7 at GCSE with over 80% achieving 9-8, and 100% A*-B at A-level. The department also has a comprehensive Oxbridge programme, with much recent success in this area.
We run a challenge week encouraging all pupils and staff to have more contact with Chinese culture. Every year we have pupils enter Mandarin speaking and translation competitions. We encourage all our pupils to make Chinese a real part of their everyday lives and use their language as often as possible.
Role SpecificationThe successful candidate will be expected to support the teaching of Mandarin across the curriculum, from Year 7 to A-level. The candidate will primarily assist with heritage or native pupils' learning from Year 7 to Year 10, both one-to-one and in small groups, and with our provision for speaking practice for native speakers of Chinese (both Mandarin and Cantonese), as well as conducting speaking sessions, both one-to-one and in small groups for our GCSE and A-level groups. There may be opportunities to develop classroom teaching for those with an interest in this area. Part of the role also involves planning and organising cultural enrichment activities for different Chinese festivals, and departmental school trips and outings for pupils.
Additionally, all teaching assistants at Brighton College are expected to contribute to the school’s pastoral system, generally as a tutor in one of our 16 houses (of which six are boarding houses and ten are day).
There is also an expectation that all teaching assistants will contribute to the cocurricular life of the school, through the extensive Games programme, and/or through the leadership of one of over 100 school societies.
Candidates are encouraged to point to interests and enthusiasms as part of their application. All staff have the opportunity to contribute to our Masterclass programme; this is a series of weekly lessons designed to celebrate the enjoyment of learning, focusing on an area of personal academic or cultural interest. These have included subjects such as Magical Realism, Cuisine and Culture and Great Debates in History.
Person SpecificationThe academic success of Brighton is due to excellent, innovative and well-planned teaching. We are looking for individuals who foster a passion for learning and who can demonstrate an ability, and genuine desire, to develop pupils to their fullest potential.
In this role, language skills in Mandarin will obviously be of paramount importance,with native fluency required. The ability to communicate with and inspire teenagers in both English and the target language is also crucial.
Knowledge and understanding of GCSE A-level requirements would be advantageous but is far from necessary, although the ability to learn quickly is. Those applying for the wider assistant teacher role will also need to demonstrate willingness to support the ambition and values of the school and to be involved in a breadth of College life.
Hours of WorkMonday to Friday, 8:15am to 4:45pm with a 30-minute unpaid lunch break (40 hours per week) during term-time (35 weeks). Additional Saturdays are to be worked for Open Mornings, admissions and weekend duty, as well as attending school trips (two of which fall outside of term time).

Teacher of English
- Job Summary
-
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a Teacher of English to start in August 2026.
The Department
The English department at Brighton College is a highly experienced and collegiate team, where all members are committed to the ethos of not only generating strong results but inspiring a passion for the subject within each year group.
The department currently consists of 12 full time and five part time members of staff. The subject is taught throughout Years 7 to 11 in mixed-ability classes.
There are currently 70 pupils taking the subject at A-level. At present, we follow the OCR syllabus for GCSE and A-level English Literature and the Edexcel IGCSE for English Language. Familiarity with these specifications would be welcome. A passion for engaging pupils of all abilities with the techniques of analysis and essay construction would be very desirable.
Over the past few years, we have focused very carefully on developing the GCSE standard and results through excellent classroom teaching and targeted intervention. This commitment has driven outstanding success: in 2025, 98% of IGCSE Language grades were 7–9, and 96% of GCSE Literature grades achieved the same benchmark.
At A-level, 100% of our pupils regularly achieve A*-B. The department also has a comprehensive Oxbridge programme, with much recent success: 70% of applicants have been awarded offers in the last three years. Results aside, we pride ourselves on the diversity of our teaching: each year, there are over sixty different texts taught to pupils in Year 7 to 13, exploring a broad range of genres, forms, and voices.
The English department is based in the purpose-built space within the College’s performing arts complex (The Richard Cairns Building). The department is housed in a suite of six modern classrooms, each equipped with interactive touch screens and full audio equipment, providing an enhanced learning environment for pupils and staff.
The department offers an extensive programme of activities not related to specifications, including theatre trips, a literary magazine, creative writing, journalism, extension sessions and both Junior and Senior Literary Societies.
Role SpecificationThe successful candidate will be expected to teach mainstream English across the curriculum, from Year 7 to A-level. An ability to prioritise intellectual curiosity in the approach to the subject will be greatly valued in teaching practice, as the department continually aims to deepen personal pupil engagement. Given the diversity of texts studied and that we regularly refresh curricula, flexibility and a high level of confidence in adapting to teaching new texts is also required.
An ability to contribute to the broad academic pursuits of the department, including extension clubs and activities, is highly desired. Willingness to support pupils with applications to leading universities (including Oxford and Cambridge), will be a distinct advantage.
All teachers within the department are expected to assist in the development of schemes of work, as well as in the creation of teaching resources and the compilation of content for our Microsoft OneNote Notebooks and SharePoint.
Additionally, all teachers at Brighton College are expected to contribute to the school’s pastoral system, generally as a tutor in one of our 16 houses (of which six are boarding houses and ten are day).
There is also an expectation that all teachers will contribute to the cocurricular life of the school, through the extensive Games programme, and/or through the leadership of one of over 100 school societies.
Candidates are encouraged to point to interests and enthusiasms as part of their application.
