Graduate Science Trainee Teacher – Chelsea

Mainstream Secondary Schools | Chelsea, London
Full-Time | Monday to Friday | September 2026 Start
Salaried Route | QTS Awarded

Are you a recent Science graduate or final-year student looking for a fully funded, school-based pathway into teaching?

A prestigious secondary school in Chelsea is seeking motivated graduates to join its Graduate Science Teacher Training programme from September 2026. This salaried route allows you to train in a real classroom, gain Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), and receive expert mentoring—without the financial strain of a traditional PGCE.

The Role – Graduate Science Trainee Teacher

As a Graduate Science Trainee Teacher, you will:

• Deliver Science lessons across Key Stages 3 and 4, with potential exposure to Key Stage 5.
• Receive structured, hands-on support from experienced mentors.
• Take part in weekly professional development sessions focused on pedagogy and classroom management.
• Support practical experiments and lab-based learning activities.
• Gradually take on full teaching responsibilities, preparing you to achieve QTS within one academic year.

What’s on Offer

• Fully salaried teacher training with no tuition fees.
• QTS awarded after one year, with optional PGCE at no cost.
• School-based, practical training rather than theory-heavy assessment.
• Access to a supportive network of graduate trainees across London.
• Progressive teaching responsibilities to build confidence and expertise.

Ideal Candidate

• A 2:1 or First-Class degree in a Science subject (Biology, Chemistry, Physics, or equivalent).
• GCSE Maths and English at grade 4/C or above.
• Passionate about inspiring young people in Science.
• Professional, resilient, and eager to develop a teaching career in London.
• Right to work in the UK.

Interviews are ongoing both online and in person.
