St Edward's Oxford is seeking an enthusiastic and accomplished Teacher of Mathematics to join a thriving and ambitious department from January 2027.
You will teach Mathematics across a range of ages and abilities, delivering engaging and challenging lessons that develop pupils' confidence, technical fluency, problem-solving skills and independence.
You will join a collaborative department of fourteen teachers where innovation and experimentation are encouraged, and staff are supported to explore new approaches to teaching and learning. The department makes extensive use of technology and resources including OneNote, GeoGebra, Desmos, Dr Frost and graphical calculators.
Alongside classroom teaching, you will contribute to the wider academic and co-curricular life of the School and act as an academic tutor to a small group of pupils.
About you
We are looking for a well-qualified mathematician with a good honours degree and a genuine enthusiasm for helping young people achieve their potential. You will be an engaging and effective classroom practitioner with excellent communication, organisational and IT skills, and the ability to build strong relationships with pupils and colleagues.
A teaching qualification is desirable rather than essential, while previous experience of teaching IB, Further Mathematics, working within a coeducational school or working in a boarding environment would be advantageous.
This is an excellent opportunity for a teacher who is keen to continue developing professionally within a supportive department and become involved in the wider life of St Edward's.
St Edward's has its own salary scale and benefits, and accommodation may be available.
The deadline for applications is noon on Monday 12th October 2026.
Interviews will take place on Monday 19th October 2026.
References will be taken up once candidates are short-listed, unless the candidate explicitly requests a delay.
Online and social media background checks will also be carried out.
The interview process will include an observed lesson.
