We are seeking a committed professional to contribute to the leadership of our innovative Mathematics department in a permanent capacity to begin in September 2020.

These responsibilities should be exercised in such a way that all pupils, of whatever ability level can make progress in Physics and achieve significantly higher then national average value-added. The post holder will also support the Subject Leader generally across the whole department. We want to develop truly great teaching in our school; it is a driving ambition. Consequently, we want to appoint truly great teachers whose teaching leads to improved student progress. We have our own vision of what Truly Great Teaching looks like. It is simple, it is what we all aspire to when we teach and is summarised below: We know the students in front of us. The needs of individuals are catered for so that they all feel part of the lesson and can achieve the best possible outcomes. Students feel cared for, known and supported in a teaching environment that is embedded in our core values of respect, honesty and kindness. We are reflective practitioners who continue to develop excellent subject knowledge. We adopt an evidence-informed approach to learning and teaching. We understand the literacy and numeracy demands of our students, and all of us support students to access the requirements of the curriculum. Our students are given strategies to develop memory and metacognition skills. This leads to learning on a deeper level: independence, mastery and resilience. We all have high expectations for all students. Lessons are appropriately challenging and risk taking, have a clear purpose, unite teacher and learner in a common cause, and inspire creative thinking. Our feedback is planned, timely, well-structured and accessible, Our students act upon feedback to help them improve. Our questioning is used to develop thinking and foster deeper understanding. Well planned questioning promotes curiosity and engagement. Teaching encourages our students to ask meaningful questions. Behaviour for learning is well managed so that our students are active learners who exhibit the school core values.

Huntington is an 11-18 co-educational comprehensive school with a Sixth Form taking our total student numbers to approximately 1516, which includes over 300 students in the Sixth Form.
