Lead Practitioner of Maths - Full Time (part time may be considered)

A Lead Practitioner is an inspirational teacher for pupils and colleagues alike, with the track record to prove it.

They are someone who is ambitious and highly motivated to lead others. The Lead Practitioner will do everything

possible to raise the quality of teaching and learning in Mathematics and in the wider school.

The word ‘outstanding’ appears a lot in advertisements for teachers – but at Swanshurst School, it means more.

Swanshurst is an ‘Outstanding School’ for girls with 1830 students on roll aged 11-19 years. We offer excellent

support and CPD for staff at all stages of their career.

In our latest inspection, Ofsted found pupils at Swanshurst to be “happy, well cared for and that they secure

excellent academic and personal outcomes” they described the girls as “polite, respectful and courteous”.

Needless to say, we are incredibly proud of them and of all our staff who contribute to the “purposeful learning

culture within the school that characterises the work of staff and pupils”.

How have we achieved our current strengths? Quite simply, we employ teachers who are as ambitious, passionate

and dedicated as we are. These amazing people work hard to ensure that our pupils make the best progress they

possibly can. Whether they are the most able or those requiring additional support, every child deserves nothing

less than the very best teaching.

Not surprisingly, there’s a real buzz about our school. If you would like to be part of it – and teach children who

genuinely want to learn – we would love to hear from you.
