Physics Teacher / ECT

Job Description

KPI Education are working closely with a high-performing London secondary school that is on a mission to become a centre of excellence for STEM — and they need a top-tier Physics Teacher or ECT to be part of that journey. This is a rare opportunity to step into a school where Physics is thriving, outcomes are strong, and there is real appetite to push even further.

Why this school?

• Separate specialist Physics teaching at KS4 & KS5
• A-Level Physics numbers well above national average uptake
• Students regularly progressing to Russell Group universities for Physics, Engineering & related fields
• Access to cutting-edge lab equipment and dedicated Physics spaces
• Partnerships with external organisations, STEM programmes, and university outreach

What makes this role different:

• You'll be teaching students who are curious, capable, and willing to be challenged
• You'll have the autonomy to teach beyond the specification — bringing real-world Physics into the classroom
• You'll be part of a team that values subject expertise and intellectual discussion
• Leadership actively supports career progression into Lead Practitioner / Head of Physics routes

The impact you'll have:

• Deliver high-quality Physics across KS3–KS5 (depending on experience)
• Inspire future scientists, engineers, and problem-solvers
• Contribute to a department aiming for exceptional outcomes, not just good ones
• Play a role in shaping the future direction of Physics within the school

Who they want:

• A Physics specialist (or strong Science Teacher with Physics specialism)
• QTS (or working towards as an ECT)
• Someone with strong subject knowledge and the confidence to stretch top-end students
• A teacher who brings energy, clarity, and passion into every lesson
