AddressWe are looking to appoint two enthusiastic Teachers of Science at Bristnall Hall Academy to commence either April or September 2024 (1 x permanent, 1 x temporary maternity leave cover). The successful candidates will be someone who will supplement and enhance a strong established and supportive Science department.
Due to our increasing PAN and student numbers, we are excited to offer the opportunity to join our academy as our staff body continues to grow and support our larger year groups of 220 students. This is an exciting time to join our academy as we are pleased to be an Outstanding academy, following on from our inspection in November 2023. Inspectors stated that Bristnall Hall Academy staff “feel valued” and our classrooms “ooze enthusiasm and productivity”.
The successful candidate will be a dynamic and forward-thinking individual, with a real drive to enhance students’ experience of Science in the classroom. We are seeking an ambitious professional with the ability to teach across the key stages, and join an academy which is dynamic and inspiring, creating a culture of outstanding success amongst our students. As a key member of the team, you will play a lead role in curriculum development alongside progressing and enhancing the teaching practice of others within the academy and beyond. We are keen to secure a high calibre teacher who can make a telling contribution to our forward-looking team.
The department is part of a well led, mutually supportive Science team; there is a very strong commitment to improving standards. The appointed candidate will work collaboratively with colleagues and will be supported by our teaching and learning team including Lead Practitioners and a strong SLT.

At Bristnall Hall Academy, we are passionate about giving our diverse and engaging students the best possible start in life.
Between 2014 and 2016, our Ofsted rating moved from Requires Improvement to Good, so we’ve been on a remarkable journey of transformation.
Given our Leading Edge School status and recognition by SSAT for the exceptional education we provide, it’s little wonder that we’re oversubscribed, with more than 200 pupils on our waiting list. Moreover, as a Lead Practitioner Learning Centre, we train the pioneering subject specialists of tomorrow.
We’re also an academy where teachers are keen to work, and in return we’re determined to hire the very best – people who can transform our students’ lives and career options whilst becoming the school leaders of the future.
Despite our success, we’re anything but complacent: we’ve recently introduced cutting-edge technology across the academy, and planned building work will take our facilities to the next level.
To discover what sets our community apart, you need to meet us for yourself. Please get in touch to make an appointment.
