Teacher of Mathematics with TLR job summary

We are seeking an enthusiastic and inspirational teacher of Mathematics with Key stage responsibility who is passionate about teaching and learning and is dedicated to achieving excellence for all.

Leaders across the school play a crucial role in planning a curriculum that is ambitious for students of all abilities. The impact is that all groups of students, including those with SEND, achieve their best. Middle and senior leaders also play a significant role in contributing to whole school improvement.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone wanting to take additional responsibility in Mathematics. You should already have demonstrated excellent leadership and management skills, be committed to inclusion and the well-being of every child and be an outstanding role model in your own professional practice.

At the heart of subject leadership is the provision of professional leadership to secure high quality teaching and learning, effective use of resources, improving standards of achievement for all students, and the promotion of students’ personal development and well-being. A Key Stage Co-ordinator must provide leadership and direction for the subject and ensure that it is managed and organised to meet school and subject aims and objectives.

A Key Stage Co-ordinator plays a key role in supporting, guiding and motivating teachers of the subject. A Key Stage Co-ordinator evaluate the effectiveness of teaching and learning, the subject curriculum and progress towards targets for students and staff in order to inform future priorities for the subject. The policy and practice of monitoring within a department provides the information for evaluation and action. A Key Stage Co-ordinator identifies needs in their own subject and recognises that these needs must be considered in relation to the overall needs of the school. It is also important that a Key Stage Co-ordinator has an understanding of how their subject contributes to school priorities and to the overall education and achievement of all students.

Throughout their work, a Key Stage Co-ordinator ensures that practices improve the quality of education provided, meet the needs and aspirations of all students and help to continue to raise standards of achievement in the school.

An outstanding track record at GCSE, BTEC and A level

An inclusive school underpinned by our CARE values

Students who actively engage in lessons and have excellent attitudes to learning

  • 33% of all GCSE grades were the highest levels of 9-7 compared to 22% nationally
  • 57% of all students achieved 9-5 including English and Maths
  • 95% achieving EBacc
