We are looking to appoint an outstanding Teacher of Maths on a permanent contract basis. You will be joining a hard-working, well-qualified and very friendly group of teachers who want the Maths subject to be seen as lively and exciting.

Our school is an amazing place, full of wonderful students and staff. We pride ourselves on taking an evidence-based approach to innovation, meaning that we choose strategies that impact on student progress and teacher workload.

Our sensible and realistic policies include an excellent behaviour policy, and a whole class feedback policy.

Our modern facilities provide an excellent environment to work in, and our thriving Sixth Form continues to grow, as do the numbers in other year groups.

• Be a committed team player;
• Have the ability to engage and inspire pupils and build excellent relationships;
• Be committed to Felixstowe School's ethos;

This is an opportunity for an existing Teacher of Maths to further their development as part of a forward-thinking MAT to benefit from our supportive model for staff CPD and career development. 

It is important to belong at work and the work you do is relied upon by our pupils, so even small positive differences which are made, make people very happy. We want to ensure you have a good work life balance and one of the ways we achieve this is by having a two-week autumn half term break.

In return we will offer:

• Job satisfaction through making a positive impact on our student’s lives
• Friendly and supportive working environment
• Supportive and positive management
• Investment in your training and development
• Bespoke teacher development programmes supported by our Teaching School Hub
• Excellent career development opportunities in our school and across the trust including secondments to other trust schools
• Evidence informed research opportunities via our Research School and programmes to reduce teacher workload including the development of the CUSP curriculum and other programmes the staff within our schools benefit from  
• Wellbeing support service
• Trust wide professional development
