What skills and experience we're looking for
The Mathematics Department
Thank you for your enquiry regarding the post of Assistant Subject Leader for Mathematics required from September 2025.
We are looking for a dynamic and inspired teacher who has a passion for the subject and is committed to developing both students and staff.
Our results are outstanding with c.80% of students achieving Grade 9-4 in the last 5 years. Our results are amongst the highest in South East Hants and are due to our relentless focus on teaching, learning and sharing. Our results are higher than the National average. In 2024, 20% of students achieved Grades 9-7, 52% of students achieved Grades 9-5.
The Mathematics team consists of ten members of staff, eight of which are full-time staff. All staff have the opportunity to teach students who will be entered for the higher level examination in Year 10 or 11. The Subject Leader is supported by two Assistant Subject Leaders and a Technology College Status representative.
There are nine mathematics classrooms all of which are equipped with interactive whiteboards. The department has adjoining resource areas and access to dedicated ICT suites. The department also has its own staff workroom.
On entry to the College, Year 7 students are taught in mixed ability tutor groups for the first month and then placed in mixed sets and a “top-set” using KS2 results and internal assessments. In Year 10 and 11, students are more formally settled.
All students begin their GCSE Mathematics in year 9. The department works hard to ensure students are supported and, enriched and extended, and as such we run additional qualifications such as GCSE Statistics, level 2 Further Maths and level 3 Additional Maths. Students with particular learning difficulties are supported by specialist staff and may be withdrawn to have extra help in very small groups. A variety of teaching resources are used across the age range with the emphasis being on interactive teaching and students working collaboratively with one another. Some students in each Year group receive one to one tuition to help boost their progress.
The College has excellent facilities and technical support in respect of reprographic, video recording/playback and information technology provision. The learning resource areas are imaginatively resourced and this sphere of provision is continuing to develop as rapidly as finances allow.
Staff new to the College are expected to take part in a comprehensive induction programme designed to foster the common maintenance and development of the College’s ethos and practices.
Closing date for completed applications is: 12 noon 16 May 2025
