Job overview

Teacher of Maths – UPS/MPS + £2,000 R&R Bonus


We are seeking to appoint an inspirational and highly motivated Maths teacher to complement our enthusiastic and knowledgeable team. Successful candidates will demonstrate strong subject knowledge and a desire to build strong relationships within the team and across the school. We are a vibrant, forward-thinking school that places significant value on professional learning and career development. We believe all students have the right to develop their Mathematical capabilities and skills to thrive in their studies and take them to the next level.

The mathematics department is a friendly, hard-working team, committed to stimulating students’ interest and enjoyment in their studies, in addition to, consistently producing outstanding examination results. The strong team ethos of collaborative planning and shared resources enables students to make excellent progress in mathematics across all key stages. We offer a diverse curriculum linking key concepts to the real world and other subjects so that students understand the importance of studying mathematics, developing transferable skills.  Students are encouraged to be active learners and develop a confident voice to become suitably numerate and feel ready for the next stage of their lives. 

Kingsthorpe College is an oversubscribed 11-18 Academy with approximately 1400 students on roll (200 students Post 16). We were graded by Ofsted as Good in all areas in December 2019. In September 2021, we joined Orbis Education Trust, and this has unlocked further possibilities for colleagues to develop, progress, and make a significant contribution to inspiring the students within our schools. We therefore believe it is an exciting time to join #TeamKC and be part of a community which is resolute in its drive to help our students leave with the confidence and skills for their future.

 

Ethical leadership is at the core of all decision making at Kingsthorpe College. As such, staff are valued, treated with respect and afforded a diverse range of opportunities that come with professional trust. We place significant emphasis on working collegiately as a staff to share our expertise and subsequently enhance the learning experience with our students. Every member of the staff is involved in a variety of professional learning programmes that take place every Wednesday across the academic year. All teachers are members of the Chartered College of Teaching providing access to the latest evidence and research.

 

You would be joining a friendly, hard-working team, with an ethos of collaborative planning and shared resources. 

 

The post will Start in September 2024.

Applications from ECTs are welcomed as are applicants wanting part time working.

 

With our trust growing, we are likely to have many more career development opportunities coming up in future.

 

The Closing date for applications is Monday 15th April 2024 at 9:00am

(We may interview suitable candidates prior to the closing date.)

Our Ethos and Culture

A genuine commitment to respect for individuals is shown in the daily life of Kingsthorpe College. One of the first things you notice when you walk into College is how nice everybody is to each other – how frequently people smile, share a friendly joke, take an interest in each other and find something positive and encouraging to say. It is also a very calm, relaxed place – not because there is never any noise (!) but because we make a point of ‘not shouting’.

Young people hate being shouted at (so do adults actually). It makes it harder for them to listen and respond positively. We believe that people choose their own behaviour and making the right choice is sometimes easier for some than others – but everybody chooses. Students at Kingsthorpe College appreciate the fact that, as a College, we are extremely fortunate that our young people usually make the right decision. They are very well behaved so that every minute of every lesson is made to count.

Staff at the school also understand that people appreciate being noticed for doing the right thing. We therefore make a point of praising and rewarding at every opportunity so that students feel good about themselves as often as possible. This goes for the staff too!

Our shared values of Aspiration, Responsibility, Respect and Care
