About Highams Park School
Highams Park School is a highly successful and heavily oversubscribed local 11-18 comprehensive with approximately 1600 students on roll including approximately 400 in the 6th Form. In the most recent 2017 OFSTED inspection report the school was judged to be good and excellent results are achieved at GCSE and A-level. The school has an excellent reputation in the local area and students now enjoy the new 6th form building which opened in September 2017. The school is a converter Academy.
The Maths Department provides a forward thinking and professionally supportive environment. Standards of achievement are high and the department plays a key role in contributing to our very positive whole school ethos. Staff are encouraged to share ideas regularly and there is a supportive atmosphere between members of the department. The Department is housed in a modern building with ten spacious and well-equipped teaching rooms. Staff are encouraged to use these resources effectively and imaginatively with frequent support provided through training and the sharing of good practice.
We are one of the few schools that offer A-level Maths, Further Maths and Level 3 Core Maths in the 6th Form, all of which are popular options at the school with many students regularly proceeding to study mathematical subjects at higher education. We are rightly proud of the high attainment of our KS5 Mathematicians and the successful candidate will have opportunity to contribute to this well-established teaching team.
