KS3 Maths Teacher

Do you have the skills to communicate and support young people with challenging behaviour?

Your interaction with these students could make a difference to their chances in education and life!

We are looking for talented teachers who are able to teach KS3 Maths.

We will use your strengths to create your timetable!

The School

Grafham Grange School is an academy for students with social, emotional and mental health challenges, located in the Surrey Countryside, 20 minutes from Guildford. We provide an all-round education for children aged 10-16.

The Vision

The vision of Grafham Grange School and as such, the intent of the curriculum, is to be able to provide every child with access to an accredited education at a level appropriate to them, further tailored to meet their needs with opportunities for vocational learning. This combined with support to help them to learn strategies to deal with the anxiety and challenges they face, which impact on their self-belief, will enable them to succeed in education and beyond.

The Role

We are looking for two committed and enthusiastic practitioners to deliver the curriculum of Maths, Science and Business to students within KS4 and KS3.

You will have outstanding interpersonal and behaviour management skills, have high expectations, and be fully committed to supporting opportunities for disadvantaged students with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs). Class sizes are limited to a maximum of 8 students.

Your planning will take into account the diversity of need and ability within each teaching group, and you will have a good understanding of engagement of students, assessment and monitoring student progress. Previous experience of working with SEMH and challenging students is highly desirable but not essential and applications from colleagues currently in mainstream settings are greatly encouraged.

The school is extremely well supported in its continual drive for excellence through its Governing Body and Academy Trust and the school is committed to CPD across its staff teams.

Applicants must have their own transport due to the rural location of the school.

Prospective candidates are encouraged to contact the Principal Janet Tremble on 01483 892214 for an informal discussion or visit prior to submitting an application.

To apply, please follow the TES application process.

Please note that CV applications will not be accepted.

Closing Date: 5pm Monday 20th December 2021

We reserve the right to appoint outstanding candidates prior to the closing date.

Orchard Hill College and Academy Trust is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children, young people and vulnerable adults and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.

Appointments made are subject to a probationary period and an Enhanced Disclosure via the Disclosure and Barring Service.
