Job overview
Woodcote High School Academy has long been a top choice for parents in the Coulsdon & Purley area of South London. Located in a pleasant suburban setting on the borders of Surrey, Sutton and Croydon, the school has a rural feel but is officially in the Outer London salary band.
Ruled “good” by Ofsted in 2015 in all areas, inspectors praised our students as “attentive, hardworking and practically always keen to learn. They get down to work fast and keep going diligently”.
GCSE results are way above average and A level results are improving rapidly. Teachers rate Woodcote as an enjoyable place to work due to the “fabulous students and supportive colleagues”.

The Department is well resourced (all staff have their own classroom) and committed to developing its vision whereby all students fulfil their potential at the highest level of achievement. This post is ideal for an outstanding mathematics teacher who wants to develop their career further. There is the possibility of progression to Director of Mathematics for the right candidate. If you have drive, initiative, a proven track record in raising student achievement across the ability range and experience or the potential to successfully lead and manage staff, then we would like to hear from you.

About Woodcote High School
Since opening in 1957, Woodcote High School has constantly evolved and grown, whilst remaining at the forefront of educational developments in the area.
Exam results have for many years exceeded national and local averages, delivering a positive Progress 8 score. Other landmark achievements over recent years include significant building projects, the opening of a Sixth Form at the School, the opening of an international standard athletics facility (Track Coulsdon, in conjunction with South London Harriers and other funding partners) and the establishment of the Enhanced Learning Provisionfor mobility impaired students.
Woodcote is a busy community, with lots to offer our students. We encourage students to develop enquiring minds that in turn increases their enthusiasm for enrichment both in and out of the classroom. Those interested in music and performance deliver great seasonal productions, and benefit from a wide range of individual music tuition. Our world-class Track Coulsdon is at the heart of our great sport and PE facilities, and we have a full range of extra-curricular sport.
In the Sixth Form, in addition to the whole school enrichment programme, students have the opportunity to stand for student leadership positions, take part in charity events and lead assemblies for raising awareness on subjects they are passionate about. We also run a series of events where guest speakers are invited into school to speak to the student body.
