Teacher of Mathematics job summary
This could not be a more exciting time to lead within the St Mark's family. Following our full graded Ofsted inspection in May 2024, St Mark’s CoE Academy achieved an Outstanding judgment in all areas of the framework. Outcomes at the Academy at Key Stage 4 are in the top 8% of all schools nationally with a Progress 8 Score of +0.71. In 2024 an impressive 68% of all A Levels were awarded A*-B grades, 92% A*-C grades and 30% of students securing a place at a Russell Group University.
Do you have the highest expectations for every member of the school community and believe in transformational education for all, irrespective of starting points and background?
Are you able to win hearts and minds with your inspirational vision for school improvement, underpinned by the school’s inclusive Christian ethos and values, Love, Hope and Trust?
Are you passionate about high-quality teaching and learning and a life changing quality of education?
Do you have the experience, skills, insights and determination to lead this ambitious school from Good to Outstanding alongside a values driven Principal and Senior Leadership Team?
If you can answer yes to these four questions, we would love to hear from you.
We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified and enthusiastic teacher of Maths who can deliver an enriching curriculum within the Maths department. You will be joining a successful Maths Department that gains strong examination results in both KS4 and KS5, with a predicted Progress 8 score of +0.5% for 2025; continuing our upward trend over the previous 5 years.
We are looking for someone who believes in building strong relationships with our students and is committed to supporting their journey of transformation, enabling them to realise their God-given potential.
The goal of the Mathematics department is to provide mathematics instruction that will encourage and empower students to become accurate, efficient, and flexible problem solvers. We can no longer predict and plan for the dynamics that our students will need to solve when they enter the work force. Therefore, we have designed a curriculum that will give our students the core knowledge, and transferable skills to apply to unfamiliar situations so that they can function as productive citizens. Our department works collaboratively on SOW and refines them each term so that we are delivering the best resources and lessons to meet the needs of all our students. Our recent work has been on building adaptive resources to meet all learners needs, as well as working on meta-cognitive strategies to foster student independence. You would be expected to develop, plan and deliver highly effective learning experiences to all students across every key stage and lead a transformational extracurricular offer.
