The Marlborough Science Academy
St Albans Herts AL1 2QA
Salary: UPS3
Fixed Term – Part Time 2 Days Per Week – September 2026
We are looking to appoint a highly experienced teacher of excellence for 2 days per week. The post is a non‑teaching post paid at UPS3 whereby you would be responsible for the mentoring and supporting of a number of new staff. You will be line managed by an experienced mentor and the Deputy Head.
This is a new post that would suit a colleague with considerable experience who understands pedagogy and has outstanding communication skills.
We are not looking for any subject specialism in particular, but a fantastic teacher, probably retired, who now feels they have something to give to the profession in the development of trainee teachers who are training over a number of different pathways.
