This is a key post as a permanent, part time (0.60 FTE) Maths teacher, and is available from 1 September 2025.
We seek to appoint a talented teacher with a passion for maths teaching who loves to see mathematicians of all abilities enjoying their maths, learning actively, and making rapid progress. The ability to teach maths to KS3 and KS4 is essential. The ability to teach maths to KS5 would be an advantage.
Mathematics is a friendly department with a well-qualified, committed team of teachers who enjoy working collaboratively. There is a lot of extra-curricular maths, especially in the sixth form. Many students have taken part in the British Mathematical Olympiad and Sixth Form Interschool Maths Competitions. There are currently over 200 students studying Maths at A Level. Several students in recent years have gone on to study Mathematics at top universities, including Oxbridge, and there is considerable support and encouragement for these students from the department. We are also proud of the way we help under confident and lower ability mathematicians develop.
We are passionate about providing opportunity for all staff to develop. The School invests heavily and productively in ensuring that staff and leaders have every opportunity to develop their expertise for the benefit of students. Professional development for staff is extremely well planned and implemented; it is linked closely to teachers’ targets for improvement.
