What skills and experience we're looking for
Leaders have high expectations. They have created an inclusive and academic culture. Teachers have excellent subject knowledge. They use their expertise to engage pupils. Pupils’ behaviour in lessons is calm and focused. Learning is not disrupted by any poor behaviour. (Ofsted Inspection Report 2022)
Are you someone who is passionate about your subject and eager to motivate children to achieve their full potential?
We are looking for an enthusiastic and well-qualified teacher to join our Mathematics Department. The successful candidates will be able to teach Mathematics to GCSE, including the possibility of A Level and/or Further Maths teaching.
