Teacher of Mathematics

Overview

Required from January 2026, we are seeking to appoint an inspirational and passionate experienced Teacher of Mathematics at our high performing girls’ grammar school.

We are looking for a teacher who has a passion for their subject, a desire to pass this on to students and an ability to combine this with excellent classroom practice.

The Mathematics Department comprises a committed, strong and supportive team that strives for the highest outcomes for the students, and works closely together to enable this. The department is well-resourced, with students in both key stage three and four supplied with on line video tutorials as well as access to text books within the classroom. The department makes use of a variety of online resources, including Mymaths and Desmos, in addition to Pearson and Collins text books. All Mathematics lessons are taught in rooms with interactive whiteboards and full use is made of these in order to deliver the curriculum in dynamic and innovative ways. Members of the department are encouraged to contribute and develop new resources, in particular those that enable individualised learning paths.

In year 7, students are taught in mixed ability groups, and then in year 8 and 9 students are banded based on ability. The main aims of key stage three are mastery of core numerical and algebraic techniques, alongside familiarity with higher order concepts with a strong emphasis on problem solving skills in preparation for GCSE. The curriculum is well mapped to ensure that students are ready for KS4 and includes investigative tasks. At key stage four, students are taught in four-tier ability groups in order to nurture students who feel empowered to achieve, through learning that is differentiated and appropriately challenging. All students sit the higher GCSE in Year 11.
