Role:                       Head of Maths

Grade/Salary:        MPS/UPS (plus fringe allowance) + TLR 1C

Working Hours:     Full Time 

Due to promotion of current postholder we are seeking to appoint an outstanding Maths teacher to lead our Maths provision. Our Maths Department thrives on the notions of inclusion, creativity and enthusiasm for the subject. Our newly re-written KS3 curriculum is designed to build skills over time towards GCSE and are sufficiently challenging students to reach the top grades. This is an excellent opportunity for an ambitious person to develop their career in a dynamic, supportive, and well-equipped academic environment with considerate students and very supportive parents.

The ideal candidate will be passionate about the Math’s curriculum and how this can be taught in an inspiring way to maximise exam success, spark students’ passion for the subject, and to help students to lead successful future lives. They should also be able to evidence a proven track record of high impact in teaching, learning and curriculum excellence, to support strong outcomes and learning experiences. The ability to extend students’ engagement beyond the school day, through extra-curricular would be an advantage.

The department attained strong results last summer, with over 82% of students gaining a Grade 6 or higher in Maths and 36% gaining a Grade 8 or 9.
