Teacher of Mathematics job summary
We are seeking an inspirational teacher committed to high academic standards who can communicate to young people an enthusiasm for Mathematics.
We are looking to appoint a suitably qualified Maths teacher to join a dynamic and supportive department. The post is permanent, full-time or part time and would be suitable for either an ECT or an experienced teacher. The successful candidate would be expected to have a passion for learning and teaching, together with the skills to inspire and motivate our students to achieve the very best they can and is dedicated to their own professional development.
At Wootton, students benefit from 5 maths lessons a week across all year groups and our results at GCSE are good and getting better. At Kimberley, more students study Mathematics than any other subject. This year, we expect around 300 students to take A-level Maths and over 100 to take Further Maths at Kimberley College. Many of our students go on to study Maths or related degrees at university, and Year 11 students thrive in the AQA Level 2 Certificate in Further Mathematics.
Delivering high-quality maths education to so many students requires a brilliant team. Across our college and school, 14 expert teachers cover everything from KS3 and KS4 to A-levels, bringing energy, creativity, and care to every lesson. We value collaboration, innovation, and a love of learning, creating an environment where both students and staff can flourish.
With Wootton adding Years 7 and 8 and becoming a secondary school we’re looking for more passionate teachers to join our team. We’d love to hear from a range of people with different experiences, whether it’s teaching maths at Key Stage 2, secondary, or post-16. Whether you’re currently training as a teacher or have a few years under your belt, we would provide all the support you need to develop further.
If you love maths and inspiring students, then Wootton Academy Trust is the place to make an impact and be part of a thriving, dynamic department.
