This is a great opportunity to join a friendly, dynamic school where all can thrive and staff are highly valued.
We are seeking a dedicated and well qualified Maths Teacher to join the Faculty of Mathematics.

There is an extremely strong culture of sharing, discussion and mutual support; rarely does a day go past without some serious (Mathematical) pedagogical discussion taking place in our department office!

This job is the perfect opportunity for anyone as passionate about teaching Mathematics as we are, and we welcome applications from experienced and newly qualified teachers alike.

•very bright and able students who are motivated and eager to learn, in an environment of excellent behaviour
“as our son departs the school he certainly has an exceptional set of qualifications in his pocket, but he carries with him so much more from his time as a Tiffinian: a thirst for learning and an enquiring mind; a keen sense of self-identify; strong peer friendships as well as a bucket-full of happy memories from his schooldays.” (ex-parent)
•an opportunity to teach your subject to a high level
“ as I depart for University I would be very grateful if you could pass on my thanks to all the teachers who have helped and supported me over the last seven years and allowed me to make the most of all the fantastic opportunities I have been given.” (ex-student)
