The Teaching school and an active talent management programme will support the successful candidate in this post and in their future career within the Trust and beyond. We are looking for a creative, innovative, and enthusiastic practitioner to join our Mathematics Department.
We want you to share our passion for teaching and learning; we are looking for someone who is keen to motivate and challenge our students and our colleagues to ensure that the Mathematics Department maintains its high profile across our community.
All of our classrooms are fully resourced with interactive screens, class sets of mini-whiteboards and visualisers. The department follows the White Rose scheme of learning and uses Sparx maths as a homework tool and for supporting independent study. In KS4 all students are entered for Edexcel GCSE Maths and have the opportunity to select GCSE Statistics as one of their KS4 options.
We have a strong culture of enrichment with our more able students across all Years 7 to 11 being entered for the UKMT Junior and Intermediate challenges, and taking part in the Eureka Maths events coordinated by the Cambridge Maths School.
In addition, all students have opportunities to participate in weekly problem-solving activities devised by Parallel and our continued links with Abbeygate Sixth Form College inspire Year 11 students to progress their STEM education at A-Level through a successful mentoring programme. In 2025 76.8% of our Year 11 cohort achieved a Grade 4 or higher in Maths, 60.7% achieved a grade 5 or higher and 26.2% achieved a grade 7 or higher, reflecting our commitment to excellence.
