What skills and experience we're looking for

The Highcrest Academy seeks an inspirational, innovative and charismatic teacher looking to join a happy, motivated and experienced team of Maths specialists. Maths is a successful department, constantly striving to meet the needs of our students, and has a commitment to continuous school improvement.

Your love for the subject will be infectious to our students, and you will continue to develop the strong hold our school community has with Maths. You will have autonomy in your teaching and be provided with an outstanding CPD package for personal development.

As a committed and innovative teacher, you can look forward to teaching KS3 and KS4, with opportunities in KS5 for the right candidate to teach A Level Maths and Further Maths.

This role represents an opportunity to join a supportive and diverse department at an exciting time of development at The Highcrest Academy. The role can be tailored to suit an ECT seeking their first teaching position or an experienced teacher looking to develop their experience in a new environment.

Are you a team player, passionate about education and social mobility? Do you want to be a pivotal part of improving opportunities for students and increasing their learning and social experiences? Do you want to work in an environment which prioritises staff and student health and well-being? Then this is the place for you!

What the school offers its staff

"Staff feel very well supported by senior leaders. According to staff, they feel valued because senior leaders are approachable..." Ofsted 2020

For ECTs, we provide weekly CPD meetings with experienced members of staff, time-tabled and protected Mentor Meetings on a weekly basis, subject knowledge time with departments and an extensive personalised CPD plan.

Commitment to safeguarding

The Highcrest Academy is fully committed to safeguarding children (policies on web). All members of staff are in a “regulated” role under the Vetting & Barring Scheme and have to be DBS cleared prior to employment.
