Teacher of Maths

ROLE: Teacher of Mathematics 

CONTRACT: Permanent/Full Time/Part Time

We are open to applications with a range of flexible working arrangements. For example, part time applications will be considered, job share or full-time teachers who could teach mathematics combined with another subject.

SALARY: MPS/UPS

REPORTS TO: Director of Mathematics

HOURS: 32.5 per week

Work Pattern: Monday to Friday in accordance with the School Teacher Pay and Conditions Document

To add capacity across the school, we would love to hear from talented mathematics teachers of all levels (ECTs welcome to apply). The aim of the mathematics department is to develop its students into problem solvers and reasoners, who can argue a point with mathematical evidence to support their case. The department aims for all learners to develop a ‘can do’ attitude as well as a love of learning for mathematics. The department plan inspiring, motivating and ambitious lessons to engage all learners whilst recognising that each learner needs differing levels of support and challenge in order to unlock their unique potential. Students are enlightened to the purpose of their learning through a ‘bigger picture’, real life examples and STEM questioning.

Although this role is primarily for a teacher of mathematics, we are open to applications from teachers of mathematics who are interested in teaching a second subject alongside this core responsibility; teachers of other subjects who would like to change direction and teach mathematics; and teachers who are looking for part-time work in a school where wellbeing and work-life balance are valued. 

While this job is not subject to a TLR there are opportunities within school every year for teaching colleagues to take on additional responsibilities and projects with TLRs attached. There is a range of opportunities for personal growth and promotion at Todmorden High School.

Purpose of the job

• To ensure the effective learning of all students across the attainment and age range.
• To structure the learning of students by planning and delivering excellent lessons.
• To promote and be accountable for high standards of achievement.

There has never been a more exciting time to join our incredible community as Teacher of Maths. In this role you will have a direct impact on the lives of hundreds of students and open doors to their futures. Together, we unlock unique potential.

We are a small and friendly comprehensive school for 11 to 16-year-olds with 900 pupils located in the beautiful Todmorden valley.

“Todmorden High School is a welcoming and friendly school. Pupils enjoy coming to school because they feel safe, and they learn a lot. Pupils get on well with their teachers and enjoy good relationships. Pupils know that there is always someone who will help them if they have any concerns.” We are so much more than ‘just another school’.
