About The Wren

At The Wren, we challenge ourselves to become better day by day: driving our school community forward so that we can offer our students an exceptional education. We are not a school that will sit still. We are restless and will be bold. We share an ambitious and inspirational vision which motivates us, and our students, to be the best we can be, ensuring that;

‘Each child, regardless of background will receive a world-class education and be nurtured, challenged and inspired to aim high.’

Our rich and purposeful curriculum offers an extensive blend of academic and practical opportunities which challenge and inspire our students to explore, discover and learn new things. We have a relentless focus on Quality First Teaching and Learning, with an exceptional team who are committed to creating ‘Inspirational Classrooms.’ To facilitate this, we expect and encourage the highest standards of attitude, behaviour and commitment from staff and students alike.

As part of Excalibur Academies Trust, we benefit from shared expertise and strong governance, whilst maintaining our own unique identity, values and deep community focus.

The Role

We are seeking to appoint a Senior Science Technician who will work closely with the Science department to provide technical support and to help contribute to the students learning experience by assisting with the preparation of materials and scientific apparatus for practical work.

This role is central to supporting the Science Department on so many levels. It is a very diverse role and you will have the opportunity to develop many skills and get involved in lots of different aspects of the Science Department.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
