Full Time, Maternity Cover

10 December 2021

Job overview

We require an enthusiastic teacher to join our mathematics team from April 2022 as a one-year maternity cover. The post would suit either a newly qualified teacher or one with experience, who can share their expertise and love of their subject, and teach lessons which inspire and that pupils enjoy. King’s College has a lively and friendly Common Room of over 50 full-time teachers, all of whom contribute to the school’s outstanding co-curricular programme of sport, music and many other activities. The ability to contribute in some way to this programme would be a distinct advantage. All teachers also tutor a small number of pupils and most undertake an evening duty in one of our boarding houses.  

Newly qualified teachers will be supported in completing their initial year at King’s by the Head of Staff Induction, who has vast experience in guiding and training NQT’s.
