What skills and experience we're looking for
The Governors of this very successful Catholic High School wish to appoint a dynamic and inspirational Lead Teacher of Maths to join our strong and dedicated Maths Department.
This role will offer the successful candidate exciting challenges that will be both rewarding and fulfilling, and will support you to achieve your own personal career goals and aspirations. Governors would be delighted to offer an additional temporary TLR for an appropriately experienced and exceptional candidate.
Cardinal Allen is a great place to work and an excellent community to belong to. We receive tremendous support from our parent body and our committed group of Governors. Our pupils actively engage in all aspects of school life, and there is a culture of mutual support and openness.
Governors hope to appoint someone who will:
Love and care for our children as much as they would their own;
Be, or have the potential to be, in every sense a great teacher;
Be enthusiastic, resourceful and keen to ensure that the highest possible standards of pupil achievement, personal development and well-being are achieved;
Have high expectations of both themselves and those they work with;
Be able to lead and inspire colleagues to continuously improve;
Always be willing to go the extra mile for our children.
WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR?
We are an ambitious school and want the very best for the youngsters in our care. First and foremost, we are looking for a great teacher of Maths, but someone who also has the potential to support and enhance the leadership of this core curriculum area.
Governors welcome applications from those who don’t currently have a leadership responsibility, but would also be prepared to offer an additional temporary TLR for an appropriately experienced colleague with a successful track record in a leadership role. Governors will be happy to discuss this at interview, along with what any additional responsibility might include.
What the school offers its staff
We have a great Maths team and, with our long serving second in Maths now moving on to a new challenge, we are looking for a fantastic teacher of Maths with the ability to support the leadership of one of our flagship departments.
