Your opportunity

Chobham Academy's maths department aims to offer all students a broad and varied experience of maths education that will equip them with the skills not only to be successful in their academic endeavours, but also so they can participate in society as mathematically literate citizens. Our students are always encouraged to be reflective and resilient learners and to take up opportunities to engage with STEM related projects both in school and around London.

The Department is well resourced with equipment, and in addition draws on the expertise of specialist maths consultants provided through the Federation. The department runs extra-curricular sessions and uses a wide range of teaching and learning strategies to promote progress and celebrate the diversity of our students.

  • To contribute to raising standards of student attainment
  • To share and support the Academy’s responsibility to provide and monitor opportunities for personal and academic growth

Advance your career within the Federation's supportive academy environment established in developing practitioners and nurturing excellent future leaders. With unrivalled opportunities for progression, we can provide bespoke courses and qualifications to match your aspirations, whether that be as a teacher, middle or senior leader. Our Teaching School Alliance can equip you with the right experience, knowledge and training you need to succeed.

The successful candidate will:

  • Hold QTS (or equivalent) and a relevant undergraduate degree
