Before you scroll past…

• Are you a Chemistry Teacher who actually loves the subject — not just teaches it?
• Do you want access to labs, equipment, and support that let you deliver proper practical science?
• Ready to join a school where Chemistry is growing, results are climbing, and ambition is high?

KPI Education are working with a highly regarded secondary school in West London that is looking to appoint a Chemistry Teacher or ECT to strengthen their Science department from September.

This is a school on the rise — strong leadership, improving outcomes, and a clear focus on STEM excellence.

Why this Chemistry role stands out:

This isn’t a “teach general science and see what happens” type of post.

• Dedicated lab spaces with a strong focus on practical delivery
• A department that protects subject specialism at KS4 & KS5
• Increasing uptake in A-Level Chemistry year-on-year
• Students progressing into Medicine, Pharmacy, and STEM degrees
• A culture where staff are encouraged to teach creatively and think beyond the spec

The results speak:

• GCSE Science results trending above national averages
• A-Level Chemistry showing strong progress scores and retention
• Improved attainment across all ability ranges through targeted intervention
• Behaviour systems that allow teachers to focus on teaching, not firefighting

What you’ll be doing:

• Teaching Chemistry across KS3–KS5 (depending on experience)
• Delivering engaging, practical-led lessons that bring the subject to life
• Supporting students aiming for top grades and competitive university pathways
• Contributing to a collaborative department with shared goals and high standards

Who this suits:

• A qualified Chemistry Teacher or ECT
• A subject specialist with strong academic grounding
• Someone who values practical science and student engagement
• A teacher who wants to be part of a department that is improving, evolving, and ambitious

Let’s see where you stand:

• How do you make abstract Chemistry concepts feel real and relevant?
• What’s your approach to delivering high-impact practical lessons safely and effectively?
• How do you stretch top-end students aiming for A/A* at A-Level?
• What would students say about your Chemistry lessons after 6 weeks?

This is a genuine opportunity to step into a Chemistry role where you can make a visible impact and develop your career in a supportive, ambitious school.
