Job overview

Teacher of Mathematics with Responsibility for Key Stage 3, Windsor and Maidenhead

An exciting opportunity has arisen for an excellent Teacher of Mathematics with responsibility for Key Stage 3 to join the existing team at our senior boys' school from September 2014.

The successful candidate will support the Head of Department by co-ordinating and developing the subject at Key Stage 3, though teaching up to Key Stage 4 (and ideally Key Stage 5) will also be required.

You will be an excellent classroom practitioner and your enthusiasm for your subject will inspire and motivate learners of all abilities. If you are looking to progress your teaching career to the next level, this could be the opportunity for you!

Applicants must be:-

  • Suitably qualified with QTS obtained in the appropriate subject and age range
  • Experienced teaching to at least GCSE level (applicants with experience also teaching to A-Level will have an advantage)
  • Passionate in using your knowledge of current theory and practice in teaching and learning to provide highly effective curriculum delivery
  • An enthusiastic team player, willing to participate fully in the School's extra-curricular programme and wider school life
  • Engaged with the School's ethos, thinking creatively and reflectively within an open, honest and hardworking team

Above all you must want the very best for our pupils and be prepared to put their needs first. You recognise the importance of educating the whole child - including all learners - and achieving high standards, within a creative, broad and innovative curriculum.

In return we offer a positive working environment, with supportive colleagues and regular opportunities for professional development and training.

This role will incorporate subject responsibility; therefore we are unable to accept applications from NQTs.

We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and applicants must be willing to undergo Child Protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with the Disclosure and Barring Service.

Claires Court Schools are proprietarily owned and operated by Hugh and James Wilding. For those who like their historical facts, Claires Court first opened its doors as a preparatory school in September 1960 led by David and Josephine Wilding – parents of the current owners. In those days Claires Court was a boarding school and Ridgeway one of the boarding houses.

As the demand for boarding reduced, the School gradually moved to a day school to 13 years of age, extending over the years to add GCSE and thus a leaving age of 16.

In 1993 College came under the Claires Court umbrella adding co-ed Nursery provision and in 1994 the co-ed Sixth Form started with 19 boys and 1 girl!

Here therefore was the birth of our unique education – the statutory school years of education with boys and girls separate but meeting for extra curricular activities, the performing arts, departmental trips and so on.

Our achievements are many and varied – never assume that academic excellence is sufficient for our pupils – we want them to experience and achieve so much more and because of this, we offer an absolute fountain of opportunity to ensure that our boys and girls emerge into the world of work or university as well balanced individuals able to move forward in confidence and with competence.

Co-ordinated education for girls and boys from 2 to 18 years

Co-ordinated education means that boys and girls are educated separately but meet together with such activities as sailing, rowing, performing arts as well as day trips and field study courses – the best of both worlds!

Our Nursery and Sixth Form are co-ed whilst the 4 to 16 year olds are educated separately.

We achieve outstanding results at all levels throughout the School with an intake that is non-selective – entry is by report from previous school and interview with the Head.

We aim to educate the whole child, treating each boy or girl as an individual and ensuring they achieve their maximum potential – sometimes far beyond what they believed they were capable of achieving.

Not only are our results excellent, we offer a school day that is brimming with opportunity and variety – both inside the classroom and out.
