Bute House is looking for a qualified Science specialist to join our dynamic team as Head of Science on a permanent, full time basis. Experience of teaching upper key stage 2 and/or key stage 3 is a distinct advantage. We have a dedicated science lab with a full time technician.
Through our inclusive and nurturing approach, every child is supported and challenged to fulfil her potential, both academically and personally. Bute House is an exciting, rounded yet rigorous environment in which girls flourish and thrive and, most importantly, have a great deal of fun.

At Bute House we are forward-looking and child centred. We believe that children learn best when they feel confident, supported, liked and respected as individuals, and when their areas of both talent and challenge are recognised and acknowledged by the adults around them.
