What skills and experience we're looking for

Queen Mary’s Grammar School, Walsall, is an invigorating and rewarding place to work: the pupils are engaged and committed to study; the staff are intelligent, friendly and forward-looking.

Due to the departure of the current postholder, the growth of the school and the increasing popularity of the subject, we are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, dynamic and dedicated Teacher of Maths to join our collaborative and flourishing department. Our ideal candidate will be a maths specialist who can teach excellent dynamic lessons, incorporating a wide range of ICT within their skill set. Teaching mathematics in KS3, KS4 and KS5 is essential, please make this clear in your application. Due to the increasing popularity of Mathematics and Further Mathematics at Queen Mary’s is it necessary that an applicant can teach A-Level Mathematics; furthermore, the ability to teach Further Maths would put candidates at an advantage. Applications are welcome from both newly qualified and experienced teachers.
