The successful candidate will be a motivated individual with a keen interest in encouraging and inspiring students and who can enable them to flourish in Science. The person appointed will have the opportunity to teach across the age and ability range including KS5 and this position would suit either an experienced teacher or an exceptional ECT and the ability to teach Chemistry at A'level would be an advantage.

Outcomes continue to be above all local and national performance measures and St Michael's is the only school in England to receive six SSAT awards for exceptional outcomes in 2023, 2024 and 2025 winning for attainment, progress and closing the gap.

As well as being a strategic partner in the Catholic Schools Partnership and Southwark Schools Learning Partnership, St Michael's is a founding school in the St Benedict Catholic Academy Trust which opened on 1st April 2024.
