Job overview
We are looking to appoint an enthusiastic teacher of Mathematics for September 2015 to work in the department to coordinate the introduction of the new Maths curriculum.

We are a large department with many highly-valued, experienced teachers and support staff. We are a close-knit and supportive team who work well together. Whilst we have high expectations of ourselves and each other, we balance that burden with kindness, humour and a shared sense of purpose.
There is capacity within the department to offer excellent support and mentoring to newly or recently qualified teachers. However we would be equally happy to welcome a more experienced teacher into the team who could contribute to the strategic development of the department.
