Teacher of Mathematics

Budehaven Community School is located on the beautiful north Cornwall coast in the town of Bude.
We are proud to be a fully comprehensive school, providing education to students from ages 11 to 19.
Our school also benefits from a thriving, successful Sixth Form, an Area Resource Base and an  Integrated Health Centre.
Partnerships are really important to Budehaven, and we have many  partners, ranging from local primary schools, to secondary schools  nationally, and a successful international relationship with Assossa,  Ethiopia.

Budehaven  Community School is a thriving environment to be part of, and  its  energy is tangible from the second you walk through the door. As you  walk  around our school, the energy of the students and staff is  infectious. The  stunning work of our talented young people is on  display around the school and  in our stylish Bistro Art Gallery, aside  that of local artists for all to  appreciate. 

We celebrate talent, skill, effort and difference, and the results of   this are evident in every part of the school community. Walls of  Excellence in  classrooms display outstanding student work, the  fundraising activities and  competitions that take place across our  Houses bring out the generosity of all  members of our Budehaven family,  the national and international sporting  competitions that we are so  proud of our students for competing within, and the  musical talents of  our students, ranging from the Jazz Band to the Samba Band  further adds  to the atmosphere.
 

We are proud to have been judged to be a GOOD  school by Ofsted (February, 2017).  Our students achieve well: younger students  follow a mastery  curriculum that builds on prior knowledge and understanding in  a spiral  way, linking ideas within and across subjects. As a result, Key Stage 3   prepares them well for the challenges of GCSEs. Our Year 11 students’  GCSE  results in 2018 showed a year on year increase in the number of  students making  good progress, and the percentage of students that  achieved a Grade 5 or higher  in English and maths was significantly  higher than other local schools. 

We are  incredibly proud of our Sixth Form,  which provides a range of A Level and BTec  courses that cater for the  academic requirements of all members of our school  community, leading  to them achieving top results. We are also very proud of our  Sixth Form  students; every year many of them go on to Oxbridge, Russell Group,   national and international universities.

Budehaven students and staff are proud of our school and the community  it  serves. We are ambitious for our students, academically and for  their  development into curious young people. Our students understand  and can  articulate their thoughts and ideas on a wide range of topics,  from climate  change to politics, economics to science. They look beyond  their locality, look  at the world in wonder, and become thoughtful and  productive members of  society.
 

We welcome anyone who would like to come and visit our school community,  and cannot wait to show you all the amazing things we have to offer!
