We are delighted to announce that all four schools in the Downsend family have been judged to be ‘excellent in all areas’ by the Independent School Inspectorate.

The school now has an exciting opportunity for an experienced Head of Science to join our fantastic team.

About Cognita:
Cognita is a global leader in independent education. Founded in 2004, we are a growing community of 90 schools in 21 countries - in Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia and the Middle East - serving more than 100,000 students. Each of our schools are proudly unique, however our collective purpose is to create an environment where everyone can, "Thrive in a rapidly evolving world".

At Cognita, we know every student is unique. We nurture their distinct personalities and strengths. We support them academically, socially, and emotionally, wherever they are in the world, wherever they’re starting from. And each and every one of our schools is unique too.

We protect what’s special about them, while offering them rich knowledge, opportunities, and best practices. And they get to be part of something bigger. We open their classrooms to the collective wisdom of 90 schools in 21 countries, ensuring every child gets an education that’s, quite literally, world class.

Working closely with the Executive Head and Heads of School, you will shape a dynamic learning environment, drive innovation in teaching, and play a key role in developing our STEAM provision across the wider school community. Alongside your leadership responsibilities, you will continue to teach your specialist subject, model exceptional practice, and contribute to a vibrant programme of trips, enrichment opportunities, and whole‑school initiatives.

This is a permanent, full-time role with a start date of either September 2026 or January 2027.

Who We Are Looking For:
You are an ambitious, committed, and confident Science educator who thrives on inspiring both pupils and colleagues. You bring strong subject expertise, proven success in driving progress, and the organisational skill to lead a thriving department. You communicate with clarity, collaborate naturally, and remain calm and focused under pressure. You take pride in creating engaging learning experiences, keeping up to date with developments in Science education, and nurturing a supportive team culture. Whether leading curriculum development, mentoring staff, or enhancing co‑curricular opportunities, you approach your work with enthusiasm, professionalism, and a genuine passion for Science.
