What skills and experience we're looking for
“Mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations or algorithms: it is about understanding.” -William Paul Thurston
The Laurus Trust are currently looking for a dedicated Teacher of Mathematics who can contribute to our commitment to providing exceptional teaching and learning experiences. We are searching for an individual who possesses a genuine enthusiasm for teaching Mathematics, both within the classroom and beyond. This post is suitable for both experienced teachers or newly qualified teachers. This role will be based at one of our Schools within Stockport, Manchester or Tameside.
Our curriculum aims to empower students to develop and apply problem solving skills focusing predominantly on the powerful and overarching mathematical components: proportional reasoning, geometrical reasoning and graphical representations. Our aim is to encourage students to develop mathematical behaviour and as such our curriculum encourages students to develop deeper understanding to make links across curriculum areas and foster a mastery approach.
What the school offers its staff
Across our Trust we believe that all students and pupils, regardless of background or circumstance, have the right to a high-quality academic education. All of our schools are Unashamedly Academic and behaviour in our schools is exemplary.
The Laurus Trust is continually growing, our family of schools now includes five primary Schools, six high Schools, and four Sixth Forms. In September 2024, the Trust opened Crown Street Primary School – the first new primary school to be built in Manchester City Centre in over twenty years and Laurus Grace, a small school catering for secondary students with significant social, emotional and mental health needs.
At all schools across the Trust we place great importance on our core purpose of teaching and learning, and on supporting students and pupils in developing the knowledge, attitudes, skills and habits which will enable them to flourish and succeed.
We welcome interest from forward-thinking, motivated and hard-working individuals who wish to share in our success. In return, we will provide excellent benefits, a welcoming and positive working environment and genuine opportunities for continuous progression.
Linda Magrath OBE -CEO
