Summary
Dear Prospective Applicant
Thank you for your interest in the position of 0.4 part-time Science Technician at Abersychan School. A highly respected Curriculum Leader with a proven track record joins the department this term, making this an exciting time in the department’s development. The Science Department is well resourced with digital tools, including interactive whiteboards, visualisers and Chromebooks. The provision for the three curriculum responsibilities of literacy, numeracy and digital skills, is more dominant in Science than any other curriculum area.
Abersychan School is an 11-16 comprehensive school which ensures that children of all abilities fulfil their potential. We are a school that is committed to ensuring that all our young people are happy, successful and ready for their lives beyond school. Our expectations and standards are high. We have a committed and caring staff who are dedicated to ensuring that each child achieves their personal best. The school currently has 723 students, 47 teachers and 45 members of support staff. The school serves an area of socio-economic disadvantage and 29% of students are entitled to free school meals.
The school’s aims are delivered through a strong pastoral system, a commitment to providing high quality learning experiences and an extensive range of sporting, cultural, musical and extra-curricular activities. Students are happy, hard-working and positive about the school. They genuinely are an asset to our community and are incredibly friendly. We have fantastic parents and governors who are very supportive in helping us ensure that each student receives the very best education. The school has been widely commended for making significant improvements to behaviour management and we are focussed on securing the highest standards through an outstanding provision.
If you are excited by the prospect of playing a role in realising the school’s ambitions, have an unrelenting belief that all students can achieve, regardless of background and ability, then we would love to hear from you! In return, I personally guarantee you the very best level of support.
