What skills and experience we're looking for

We are currently looking to appoint a teacher who has a real passion and enthusiasm for Mathematics and has the desire to make a real difference to the lives of all our students. They must be committed to continually improving their teaching and learning and have high expectations and beliefs that every student can be successful.

‘We belong’ to a team of Mathematicians, based on the second floor in their own HUB space. Each teaching room is equipped with an interactive white board and the department have their own small class set of laptops. Most of the team have their own teaching space and have access to a central work area too. In the work area, ‘we pioneer’ by collaboratively planning, regularly communicating, and support each other. The team has a wealth of experience and ‘we cooperate’ regularly by developing our teaching skills and knowledge. We offer GCSE statistics as an option subject alongside GCSE mathematics. We follow a bespoke KS3 scheme, which is continually reviewed and there are opportunities to be involved with curriculum and assessment development. KS4 is assessed by Edexcel, both maths and statistics.
