Science Lead

Simply Education are looking for an ambitious Science Lead to shape an exciting vision for our clients learners and drive high‑quality teaching across our organisation. Here, learning is truly personalised - delivered through one‑to‑one sessions, small group work and larger vocational settings - and you'll play a central role in ensuring every young person thrives.

As a Science specialist, you'll lead a diverse curriculum, champion excellent teaching and guide colleagues through targeted support, coaching and CPD. You'll work closely with school leaders to conduct quality assurance activities, identify strengths and areas for development, and drive meaningful improvements that raise outcomes for all learners.

This hybrid role gives you the best of both worlds: time in the classroom teaching groups, plus dedicated weekly release time to focus on leadership responsibilities. You'll collaborate with Learning Managers to track progress, shape interventions and personalise learning, while ensuring safeguarding, health and safety and learner information processes are consistently upheld.

You won't be doing this alone - you'll receive bespoke support from our Heads of Quality of Education and have opportunities to network with Curriculum Leads across the organisation, sharing ideas and strengthening practice together.
