Are you passionate about your subject? A confident Practitioner who stretches and challenges the most able pupils, recognises and plans for misconceptions before they occur, and is equally effective in scaffolding teaching for those who struggle?

Do you believe that all children deserve to, and indeed can, achieve well in your chosen subject area whatever their starting points or barriers? If so – read on…

We require a highly effective Lead Practitioner of Mathematics, whose practice is instrumental in ensuring that students of all ages and abilities achieve consistently strong outcomes, to join our strong team. The successful candidate must also be able to effectively support other teachers across the school to rapidly and sustainably improve teaching and therefore learning outcomes.

Applicants should have a proven track record of success and be committed to further improving teaching and learning as well as student progress within the Mathematics department. This is an excellent opportunity for an individual who wishes to develop in a supportive, well-resourced and exciting environment.
