This is a fantastic opportunity for an experienced or recently qualified Teacher of Maths looking for career progression to take on the role of Key Stage 5 Co-ordinator. The post holder will have high standards and make a significant contribution to the ongoing development of the new GCSE curriculum, as well as raising standards and developing staff within the faculty.
