Teacher of Maths job summary

Due to the growth of provision and significant rise in numbers taking A-level Maths and Further Maths within our successful Maths Department, we are seeking to appoint an additional member to the team. We would like to offer you the chance to work alongside a Maths team who have consistently been in the top 5% of schools in the country for progress.

As a school we achieved ‘Outstanding’ in all categories in 2014 and 2018 with the most recent report highlighting the Maths team: “Outcomes in mathematics are exceptionally high because of the very high quality of leadership and teaching.”

As a previously designated National Teaching School, leading on staff development and initial teacher training, we offer clear opportunities for personal and professional development. We have a range of pathways and programmes tailored to the needs of staff at various levels of their career. These include a Middle Leader Programme as well as a Senior Leader Development Programme. This is an incredible opportunity to put your career on the path you want it to take and work alongside a Maths team that are highly effective practitioners and who have lots of experience of coaching and mentoring.

Applications are welcomed from newly qualified as well as experienced professionals who possess the necessary drive and commitment to work with our students to contribute to the continued improvement of the School.

Please see below a testimonial from Nicholas Jackson, an ECT teacher who joined us in September 2021:

“Being a career changer, moving into teaching was a leap into the unknown. Having had a slightly disrupted initial teacher training year, I secured my first teaching position at Arrow Vale as an ECT teacher of mathematics. I could not believe how lucky I was to have got the job in this school.

From the very beginning, all staff have been very friendly and welcoming, with the Maths department especially really making me feel part of the team. The academy has excellent embedded routines and policies, and the senior leadership team presence is excellent; these have been key factor in allowing me to establish myself with the school. The support from the Head of Maths and other department members has been excellent and doors are always open to ask for advice or just a catch up. Feedback to improve my teaching practice has been very constructive and it ties in with the ECT course that is run with the Ambition Institute. Extra support has been available in the form of regular weekly workshops with other ECT and ITT trainees and Trust wide conferences.

I look forward to continuing my teaching career at Arrow Vale as I am assured of the continuing support and fantastic relationships I have built within the Maths department.”

Interested candidates who wish to have an informal conversation about this role are welcome to contact John Barratt – Assistant Principal / DLS Mathematics
