Teacher of Mathematics (full or part-time)

We are seeking to appoint a dynamic, enthusiastic and ambitious teacher of mathematics. We will consider both full and part-time applications. This is an opportunity to join an experienced Maths team in a supportive school environment and to make a significant contribution to departmental developments.

In 2019, 80% of year 11 students at Linton Village College achieved 4+ in GCSE maths, 57% achieved 5+ and 20% achieved 7+. Whilst these figures generally exceed the national averages, our progress levels require improvement (+0.08). As such, we are seeking to raise achievement with a specific focus on higher and lower attainers and disadvantaged students.

We are working to make rapid, long-term changes to our practice and curriculum; we are seeking a talented teacher to join us on our journey for improvement. The successful candidate must be passionate about developing Maths pedagogy and dedicated to supporting each individual learner to succeed. They must be a positive, collaborative individual who will contribute to high standards and a culture of excellence and innovation. We welcome applications from newly qualified or established teachers.

Linton Village College is a high-achieving comprehensive 11-16 school at the heart of its local community. Ensuring a high-quality education for all of our students on a daily basis is our core priority. This is underpinned by a culture in which strong relationships, effective pastoral care and personal development opportunities are of paramount importance. We are committed to offering enriching learning experiences and we strive for educational excellence. We have very high expectations and provide a nurturing, friendly and supportive environment in which everyone can thrive and achieve. 

We support colleagues’ professional learning in national programmes as well as through a broad in-school and Trust-wide training offer. We also enjoy strong links with primary partner schools, sixth form colleges and the Faculty of Education at the University of Cambridge. Our membership of Anglian Learning provides further opportunities for career development and collaboration.
