Physics Graduate - Train to Teach (Sixth Form College)
Wandsworth, SW London
Competitive (Inner London) Salaried training pathway available
September 2026 Start

Are you a Physics graduate who loves your subject - and can't quite imagine leaving it behind?

We are recruiting on behalf of a high-achieving Sixth Form College in Wandsworth (SW London) seeking an exceptional Physics graduate ready to begin a career in teaching. This is an opportunity to step into a setting designed for academic focus, subject depth and intellectual ambition.

Following a £13 million investment in new buildings and refurbishment, the college now offers state-of-the-art teaching facilities, modern science laboratories and inspiring learning spaces that reflect the seriousness with which it approaches education. The environment signals high expectations - for both staff and students.

Why this Sixth Form College?
This is a specialist post-16 setting where students choose to be there. They are motivated, aspirational and preparing for competitive university pathways, including Russell Group destinations, medicine, engineering and physics-related degrees.

The recent redevelopment has created:
Purpose-built science laboratories
Modern collaborative study areas
High-spec teaching rooms
Wider enrichment spaces to support academic excellence

The investment wasn't cosmetic - it was about creating the conditions for students to achieve the highest possible standards of learning.

The Opportunity
This role is ideal for:
A Physics graduate considering teacher training
A high-calibre academic who wants a salaried route into teaching
Someone who enjoys explaining complex ideas clearly
A future educator who values subject mastery and intellectual discussion

You would initially support A-Level Physics teaching, gaining classroom experience while undertaking teacher training (where appropriate), with clear progression into a full teaching timetable.

What Makes This Different

Teaching Physics at sixth form is not about behaviour management - it's about scholarship. You will work with students who want to understand quantum mechanics, astrophysics and electromagnetism in depth.

If you are a Physics graduate in SW London who wants to use your degree in a setting that values expertise, investment and excellence - this is a rare opportunity.

Exceptional facilities.

Serious academic focus.

A career that matters.
