Teacher of Mathematics job summary

Teacher of Maths

Start date: January 2023

An exciting opportunity has arisen within our Maths faculty. We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic Teacher of Maths to play a significant part within a dedicated and supportive team. You will be working in and making significant contributions to a team that is committed to continually raising standards.

Please note, we reserve the right to close this vacancy early if we receive an application from a suitable candidate.

Northampton Academy is a transformational comprehensive and non-selective school of approximately 1700 students, serving a diverse community. We were proud to be judged 'good and improving' by Ofsted in November 2019. Our values, which underpin every decision we take, are Respect, Determination, Ambition, Integrity and Tolerance. We have a comprehensive student character-building programme, which has been nationally recognised through the Character Kitemark Plus that was awarded in November 2021.

The leadership of the academy is completely determined to create an environment in which teachers can get on with their core role: delivering excellent lessons. To this end, the student behaviour system is clear and simple and easy to administer in lessons. If action is needed beyond these simple steps, the pastoral and senior teams take all the burden away from the teachers, conducting detentions, following up and dealing with parents on your behalf. Teachers at the academy speak of this as one of the major benefits of working here. In addition to this, teachers are trusted to be professionals through:

• A genuine ‘flexi-working’ approach with at least one opportunity a week to come in late or leave early for every teaching member of staff
• No unannounced observations
• No lesson grading
• 3 extra INSET days per year for joint team planning
• A feedback and recognition policy that lets teachers decide the best feedback mechanism for their own classes, rather than having this prescribed centrally

Northampton Academy is committed to equal opportunities and to the protection and safety of all students and adults. We expect all staff and volunteers to share these commitments.

The post will be subject to an enhanced DBS Disclosure.

If you would like to discuss the role, please contact Anne Cooper, Head of Maths – a.cooper@northampton-academy.org or Owen Jones, Vice Principal – o.jones@northampton-academy.org

Closing Date: Thursday, 27th October 2022 at 12pm

Interviews: Monday, 31st October 2022
