Job overview

At Tendring Technology College (‘TTC’) we are an extremely forward-thinking and motivated department. Students benefit from 4 hours of Mathematics teaching per week from year 8.  

We deliver a mastery curriculum to all students at KS3.  Our vision is that every student is well prepared for KS4 with a solid conceptual understanding of all strands of mathematics.  There is a specific focus on reasoning mathematically to meet the demands of the 9 - 1 GCSE.  All students complete GCSE Mathematics at the end of year 11 and we have proudly celebrated our students’ considerable success in the first sitting of the new specification this summer.  At A level, both Mathematics and Further Mathematics are offered in addition to the new Level 3 qualification Core Maths.  We work closely with the Matrix Essex and Herts Maths Hub and the Norfolk and Suffolk Maths Hub and also collaborate with the AET National Mathematics team.  We place a high value on continued professional development and a wide range of subject-specific training and research opportunities are available through our work with the NCETM, MEI and FMSP.

We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic, dynamic, and committed teacher of mathematics.  We have a strong team ethos and are looking for a like-minded person to join the department at an exciting time of its development.  We would welcome applications from both newly qualified and experienced teachers alike.

About Tendring Technology College

**Please scroll to the bottom of this page to view our live vacancies**

Tendring Technology College is a large split site comprehensive school for students aged 11-18, located in the pleasant village of Thorpe-le-Soken and the historic town of Frinton-on-Sea. The mix of this rural and coastal location is a lovely backdrop for our young people and at the same time there is easy access to Colchester, the oldest recorded town in the country, and the capital itself, London.

Thorpe Campus is situated in the village of Thorpe-le-Soken. It serves students aged 11-14. Our Frinton Campus serves the needs of students aged 14-19. We take children from a large area surrounding the College. This includes Thorpe-le-Soken, Kirby-le-Soken, Kirby Cross, Great Holland, Little Clacton, Weeley, Tendring, Little Bentley, Wix, Beaumont, Great Oakley, Frinton-on-Sea, Walton-on-the-Naze as well as a number of students who travel from much further afield including Harwich, Alresford and Colchester.

Tendring Technology College is an academy and it converted in August 2011. The school was judged to be ‘inadequate’ following an Ofsted inspection in November. The outcome was ‘serious weaknesses’ rather than ‘special measures’ in recognition of the fact that the trust and school leaders were taking the right actions to improve the school and had effective capacity to do so.
