Further details about the role
We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and committed Teacher of Maths to join the team at Hampton Gardens. This would be a fantastic role for either an experienced teacher or an NQT who is looking to start their career in a supportive and dedicated department. This is an exciting time to be joining the maths department with the subject being offered at KS5 at Hampton Gardens for the first time from September 2022.
The role of the Maths Department is to work hard to ensure that all students feel safe, secure in their learning striving to achieve academic excellence. The ethos is such that there will be a continuous drive for improvement and as a result we will continuously evaluate and develop the pastoral provision during the school’s expansion over the coming years.
The team currently consists of a Director of Maths, who reports to the Assistant Head of School, who also teaches maths. Within the department there are 12 members of staff, including a Second in Maths from September 2022. Alongside this we will have a team of teaching assistants who will help students with specific SEND requirements so that they can remain in a mainstream classroom. The department will expand over coming years to cover teaching requirements as student numbers increase.
The school offers a wide range of extra-curricular music opportunities these include lunch clubs, school choir, private lessons and school performances in conjunction with the Dance teacher.
