Job overview

We seek a charismatic communicator to teach in our small maths department, to inspire our children with the beauty of mathematics, and help all of them to gain satisfaction from appropriate mathematical achievements. Our subject specialists usually teach a range of ages from Year 6 through to Year 13.  It is desirable, but not essential, that the successful candidate can teach Further Maths. All of our teachers are expected to contribute enthusiastically to the wider life of the school by supporting the running of maths clinics and clubs.   We take part in the UKMT maths challenges and run a Primary Maths Competition for Year 6 students from local state schools. 


Our Sixth Form teaching is scheduled between 10 am and 5.30 pm to suit the circadian rhythm of adolescents in their late teens. Class sizes at A level are very small and our students are of a high calibre looking towards Oxbridge and other Russell Group universities.


We are looking for well-qualified mathematicians, who will be able to inspire our pupils and help to promote the high cultural and academic ethos of the school. Applications are equally welcome from teachers with some years’ experience and from new entrants to the profession.


An immediate starter would be preferred so you can undertake training, however, we will welcome applications for an Easter 2023 start date.

Please note that we are unable to accept applications unless they are made on our own application form. Applications will be reviewed on receipt and interviews will be scheduled on an ongoing basis until the post is filled. We reserve the right to end the job advert before the deadline if a suitable candidate has been found.

Your application form should be completed in full and returned to Sarah Kirk, HR Manager: sjk@hchnet.co.uk.

Due to the large number of applications the School receives, please be aware that only shortlisted candidates will be contacted to be invited for an interview. We have the right to appoint a suitable candidate before the closing date.

Hampton Court House is committed to diversity and inclusion, equality and safeguarding the welfare of children. The School is registered with the DBS and successful applicants will be required to successfully complete the Disclosure procedure at the Enhanced level. It is an offence for a person barred from working with children to apply for this post. Hampton Court House is committed to Equal Opportunities and strives to achieve inclusivity and diversity within our community. Therefore, we welcome applications from all sections of the community.

Nestled in Bushy Park, Richmond-upon-Thames, Hampton Court House is an independent co-educational day school for ages 2 – 18, educating Early Years children in our Pre-Prep School & Nursery, The Little Courtiers, to students in Year 13. 

The majority of our pupils elect to stay on to complete their full education with us, enjoying great success in their GCSEs and A Levels: in 2023, 40% of A Level grades were awarded A*/A, resulting in a 100% Oxbridge and Russell Group application success rate. Our GCSE results were equally strong, with 70% of all GCSE grades being awarded A*/A. Hampton Court House was in 2022 ranked in the top 50 independent schools nationwide (The Telegraph) and in the top 10 co-educational independent schools in London (School Owl, 2023).

Our programmes offer an extraordinary education. From the Forest School in Early Years and the award-winning Institut francais LabelFrancÉducation accredited French bilingual programme, to the Nebula Future Researcher’s Programme © in the Sixth Form, Hampton Court House pupils get a head start every step of the way.

We lay the foundations of a lifelong love of learning, and it is important to us that children enjoy being here and look forward to coming to school. In keeping with our ethos, we believe that children need some guided freedom in order to develop their independence and confidence to use their voice. Our non-uniform parkland campus environment, in which staff and pupils alike are addressed on a first-name basis, cultivates an energy where pupils grow in confidence and find themselves.

The school is located close to Hampton Court station, which is 35 minutes from Waterloo and 20 minutes from Wimbledon by train. There are also frequent buses to and from Kingston, Hampton, Teddington and Twickenham, or for staff who drive, there is on-site parking.
