Maths Progress Coordinator

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a motivated, energetic and innovative individual to take on a leadership role in our Maths department.  If you have a passion for demonstrating the wonders of Maths to young people, and a commitment to work with all ages and abilities, we would like to hear from you.  You will be an outstanding practitioner with a past record of high performance linked to students’ learning, standards and progress.  You must also have a belief in the ability of all students within the school to achieve their full potential.  Moreover, you will need to demonstrate that you can inspire both staff and students.  This is a strategic post that offers opportunities to work with the Progress Leader to develop Maths provision at Hilbre, including shaping the curriculum so that students are motivated to fulfil and exceed their potential.  There are lots of opportunities within this role to develop your professional profile and experiences.  The exact roles, responsibilities and TLR of the post will be determined after the interview and depend upon the skillset of the successful candidate.

Our Key Stage 3 and 4 classes are taught using the White Rose scheme, in order to develop a deep and broad Mathematical understanding in preparation for GCSE.  Our curriculum is underpinned by research on task design, variation theory, concept development and raising achievement.  We are an engaged, outward looking department keen to engage with external partners to continually appraise and improve teaching and learning.  We are looking to strengthen our links with the local MathsHub on our journey to embed Teaching for Mastery in all areas of our curriculum.  

In our most recent Ofsted inspection, in October 2021, we maintained our status as a ‘good’ school.  We offer a friendly, supportive working environment, which values talented, committed staff and offers excellent professional development opportunities.  We are highly committed to managing teacher workload and offer a fortnightly home-based PPA session to all teaching staff.  Hilbre High School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people, and expects all staff to share this commitment.  This post is subject to a satisfactory Enhanced DBS Disclosure.

All details are available to download from our website www.hilbre.wirral.sch.uk.  An application form and letter of application must be completed for eligibility to the post and should be returned to the Headteacher, Mr Mark Bellamy, either by post or by email to schooloffice@hilbre.wirral.sch.uk.  All electronic applications will be acknowledged.
