Teacher of Mathematics

Location

Wandsworth, Greater London | United Kingdom

Job description

We are seeking to appoint a full time Teacher of Mathematics who is able to teach across the Senior School age range (11-18 years) and who can prepare pupils for GCSE and A Level examinations in the subject.

The position is suitable for either a teacher who is in the early stages of their career (including recent graduates) or one with more experience who is seeking to develop in a new and stimulating environment.

Mathematics is a very popular subject at this school. More pupils choose Mathematics for study at A-Level than any other subject. A-Level Further Mathematics is also very popular. Almost half of the Year 11 cohort is entered for Further Mathematics GCSE which is an extension to the IGCSE and also serves as good preparation for A-Level Mathematics.

Many pupils who progress into higher education read degrees in Mathematics and subjects that require Mathematics such as Engineering or Science. 

We have a wide-ranging extension programme which includes entering most pupils into the UKMT competition and entering teams into the Hans Woyda Competition.

Our best Further Mathematics A-Level pupils are also entered into the Advanced Extension Award (AEA). Past pupils have gone on to read Mathematics at both Oxford and Cambridge.

There is a 13 strong Mathematics teaching team; some are full-time, and some are part time. Most of these are based in a Faculty Office which helps to promote the sharing of ideas in a supportive environment.

This post will commence 31 August 2024.

This is a term time only role, Monday to Friday, 8am to 4:00pm, with a six-month probationary period.

Further information on the role is set out in the .
