Job overview
We seek to appoint a committed and hardworking teacher who is keen to teach GCSE Maths at Post 16 level. The Maths department support the College’s foundation programme which is a one year course that prepares and develops students so that they can access a level 3 study programme the year after. The Maths GCSE resit course plays a huge role in the success of this foundation programme.
This role will focus supporting students with a grade 4 in Maths on our foundation programme. These students continue with GCSE Maths to become more accomplished in the subject. Grade 4 students will be taught in small groups of up to seven per class and will retake their exam in the summer with the objective of making further progress. This is aimed at preparing them for the numeracy involved in level 3 courses rather than students having a year without any Maths education. Many students who were previously not eligible for level 3 make rapid progress which gives these students a wider range of opportunities in their progression.
Both experienced teachers and NQTs are encouraged to apply. Whatever your experience you will be supported in a way that best supports your development in a College renowned for its innovation as well as the exceptional progress of its students.
You will be joining a high performing Maths department which is made up of 5 teaching staff and is a successful part of an ambitious College, with highly effective and dedicated teachers. Within the department there is a real team ethos with regular opportunities for collaboration and dialogue with colleagues.
