Graduate Science Academic Mentor
Your science degree is just the beginning. Ready to inspire the next generation of scientists?
A high-performing secondary school in Watford is offering a brilliant opportunity for a driven Science graduate to join their team as a Graduate Science Academic Mentor for the 2025–26 academic year.
This is an ideal stepping stone for a graduate considering teacher training in Biology, Chemistry, or Physics – offering you real classroom experience, mentorship from experienced educators, and the chance to make measurable impact with students.
About the School:
This Academy is a forward-thinking, mixed comprehensive secondary school located just outside central Watford. Known for its high expectations and strong focus on STEM education, the school is:
• Rated ‘Good with Outstanding Features’ by Ofsted (2023)
• Top 10% nationally for Science progress at GCSE level
• Boasts a dedicated STEM building with fully equipped labs, prep rooms, and breakout spaces
• A short walk from both Watford High Street and Watford Junction stations – easy access via Overground, National Rail, and bus routes from North and West London
Your Role:
As a Graduate Science Academic Mentor, your job is to build confidence, close knowledge gaps, and stretch the potential of students at all attainment levels.
Your responsibilities will include:
• Running 1:1 and small-group interventions across KS3 and KS4
• Supporting students with practical work, scientific writing, and exam skills
• Assisting in planning, preparation, and delivery of curriculum content in Biology, Chemistry or Physics
• Providing feedback and helping track student progress
• Acting as a relatable role model and champion for Science education
You’ll work closely with experienced Science teachers, pastoral staff, and SEN teams to help every student reach their potential.
Who We’re Looking For:
• A recent graduate in a Science discipline (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Biomedical Science, or related)
• Strong subject knowledge and clear communication skills
• A passion for education and a potential future in teaching or academic mentoring
• Confidence working with teenagers, with a calm and supportive approach
• Experience tutoring or mentoring young people is helpful, but not essential
The Offer:
• £25,000 – £30,000 per annum (depending on experience)
• Full-time, Monday to Friday, term-time only
• Fixed-term contract (September 2025 – July 2026)
• Weekly pay and access to teacher training pathways if desired
Whether you’re heading for the classroom, lab, or education sector long-term — this is your chance to inspire curiosity, fuel ambition, and see your subject come alive.
