We are offering an exciting opportunity for a mathematics teacher to join the team in contributing to and delivering an outstanding curriculum at the UK’s first secure school.

Whilst the role is advertised as full time, we can consider flexible working requests such as part time working by the successful candidate. When considering any such requests we would match this against our operating requirements. If you would be interested in exploring whether we could potentially accommodate a flexible working pattern or not, please can you state this in the additional sheet within the application form providing as much detail as possible. Our full-time working patterns are Monday to Friday at 35 hours per week.

Oasis Restore represents a revolution in youth justice: an opportunity for children within the criminal justice system to experience a truly restorative environment, that creates the potential for them to thrive in the future. As a founding teacher, you will play a key role in designing and delivering a curriculum that provides nurturing, therapeutic and educational community that embeds hope, stability, and opportunity for children in our care. Come and develop your career within an organisation dedicated to transforming lives.

Your role as a mathematics teacher will be integral to the progress of all children at Oasis Restore, to deliver aspirational educational outcomes. You will provide tailored support to enable every student to make progress in their core mathematical studies, secure relevant numeracy-related skills in their daily life, and help prepare them for successful transition on to further education, training, or employment. You will be responsible for outstanding teaching that develops curious and dedicated learners and meets their individual needs and interests. You will have the opportunity to teach a second subject area, developing your own practice with the necessary support to deliver consistently outstanding teaching. You will launch and continuously contribute to a creative curriculum underpinned by progressive pedagogies, in line with the national curriculum, and a variety of formal qualifications, setting a true gold standard for learning.

You will be an integral part of a passionate, committed, and ground-breaking multidisciplinary team, working integratively towards improving the outcomes for children so often overlooked. The mathematics and numeracy team combines people with industry, mainstream school, and secure settings experience. Together, we will devise and implement strategies to empower children to take ownership of their own learning journeys, so preparing them for successful transitions into the next phase of their journey. You will teach class sizes of 5 children, with the support of two additional staff to tailor learning support to each student, in a specially designed education building with brand new technology and software

As a champion of restorative practice, you will place relational connection at the heart of everything you do. Your work will be the driving force that enables children to transition out of Oasis Restore with the support in place for them to succeed in the next step of their journeys.
