What skills and experience we're looking for

We are seeking to appoint a committed enthusiastic teacher with the ability to teach Mathematics to GCSE to take responsibility for the leadership of either Key Stage Three or Key Stage Four. This post is an ideal opportunity for a teacher of mathematics looking for their first responsibility or for a more experienced teacher looking to change roles. The ability to teach mathematics to A-Level would be an advantage.

What the school offers its staff

We were very pleased with our recent Ofsted feedback (June 2023) and how it has endorsed the achievements, improvements and direction that we are travelling in.

Mathematics continues to be a highly successful subject which is very popular at A-Level. You would be joining a team of eleven hard working, teachers with a range of experience and a dedicated mathematics teaching assistant who provides support for students in the classroom. The department is well resourced with each classroom equipped with an interactive whiteboard. Mathematics uses White Rose Maths to support their teaching and use the mastery approach in the majority of lessons.

Outside the formal curriculum we offer a wide range of extra-curricular activities and clubs. Our students travel the world – recent trips have been to China, Poland, Berlin, skiing in Utah, and Barcelona, along with many opportunities to attend fieldwork, theatres and museums more locally. Our students are also very active in the community working alongside local and overseas charities to raise money for good causes.

If you feel your values and ethos align with ours, this is an exciting opportunity for you! We are looking for someone with energy and vision that is ambitious for themselves and the young people of the school. You will have a growth mindset and believe in offering dynamic Mathematics learning across the Key Stages.

Working with us offers you the opportunity to;

• Join a positive school where effort and success is celebrated
• Engage in excellent and personalised professional development opportunities
• Have the support of a dynamic leadership team to ‘take risks’ in a supportive environment

-you believe in an aspirational education…

-you believe that better never stops…
