What skills and experience we're looking for
We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and committed Teacher of Science to join our popular and successful Science department.
Applications are welcome from ECTs through to UPS3, and full‑time or part‑time hours will be considered.
Science is a highly regarded and well‑subscribed curriculum area within the school.
The ability to teach A Level Biology and/or an interest in teaching Medical AAQ to our 6th form student where Science is one of our most popular curriculum areas would be beneficial.
This role offers an excellent opportunity to work within a supportive team that values professional development and high‑quality teaching and learning
At Colton Hills we believe that every child is entitled to the highest quality learning experience, irrespective of their starting point. There are no barriers to high achievement and no excuses for not succeeding. In every lesson students are exposed to powerful knowledge and culturally rich experiences.
Colton Hills is committed to the safeguarding of all our Staff and Students and the successful applicant will undergo an enhanced DBS Check along with on line and social media checks.
Please complete your application, using the TES quick apply function, as soon as possible. Full details of the role can be found in the Job Description.
APPLICATIONS WILL BE CONSIDERED UPON RECEIPT AND WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO INTERVIEW AND APPOINT PRIOR TO THE CLOSING DATE.

Interview date: Wednesday 20th May 2026 ( Candidate will be informed on Monday 18th May if they have been chosen to interview)
What the school offers its staff
Colton Hills has been judged as a ‘Good’ school in 2015, 2018 and 2023 and we are committed to improving that judgment in future inspections – not for our own glory, but because we know we will be giving our students the best deal possible. The school encompasses a rich, harmonious and multicultural community and is committed to the development of all students, up to and including our growing sixth form.
The school is situated to the south of Wolverhampton’s city centre, on a site surrounded by green space and fantastic views across hills and fields. We also benefit greatly from a wide range of fantastic facilities for our staff and students, including an on-site swimming pool, AstroTurf pitch, dedicated Sixth Form block, flexible breakout spaces across the school and a large theatre often used by groups in our local community for performances. We are a school with a real family feel, with a strong House ethos that underpins our work.
We know that having successful students starts with having happy and well-supported staff. We are very much committed to our teachers having a fulfilling work-life balance, with an email policy that respects family time, careful management of our time budget to eliminate unnecessary meetings, a reduction in the amount of data we collect and an evolving marking policy designed to give teachers their lives back. We have adapted our appraisal system to prioritise professional development over data targets because we want our teachers to be satisfied in their work and judged fairly on their commitment to our school.
Our outcomes show that we are a successful school. We are also a growing school, our student numbers are robust and the whole-school cohort is over 1000 students. With a healthy financial picture and strong school governance in place, we are now seeking to expand our staff to create the best possible experience for our students every day, to develop their confidence and aspiration by surrounding them with inspiring adults delivering an exciting curriculum.
