Job Description

Project People are supporting a secondary school based on the North London / Hertfordshire borders. They are seeking to appoint an experienced Maths Teacher from September 2020 on a permanent basis.

The Maths department is strong, with enthusiastic, supportive and collaborative colleagues which includes the and is overseen by a highly experienced Head of Maths.

They work in a brand new facility, opened in Autumn 2016, which has a wide range of ICT support and rooms that can be booked by a class teacher if the curriculum or learning dictates that, along with a full range of resources to support outstanding teaching. There is also a close link between the Maths departments of the different schools with the multi-academy trust, which leads to collaborative approaches to learning at both schools, as well as mutual sharing of expertise and ideas.

At Key Stage 3, they built the foundation for GCSE study by not only facilitating students' learning of subject content, but also by developing and strengthening students' skills. The students cover the core skills that are required for Maths at GCSE. Across Key Stage 3, the focus is on ensuring the sequencing of learning is correct for students, so they are able to piece together their learning in Maths and apply the skills to a range of contexts. The department focus on numeracy skills using TT Rockstars, Numeracy Workout, and Numeracy Ninjas to promote and develop numeracy at Key Stage 3.

At Key Stage 4, Maths is a core subject taught in ability sets. Students will start Key Stage 4 in Year 10 and are undertaking the Edexcel GCSE Maths specifications. The department supplements the learning in class by taking students on a range of trips.

A thorough induction scheme is available to all new staff. In addition to this, the department has an "open-door" policy whereby peer observation is encouraged, and much department time is devoted to the sharing of good practice and raising attainment.

For candidates in the early stages of their careers, the department provides a range of support to further develop a colleague's teaching expertise and experiences. In addition, the Multi Academy Trust provides an unrivalled training programme for teachers, through personalised CPD and support, and is proud both of its retention of NQTS for the long term, and their subsequent promotion to senior positions.

The school are seeking to appoint a practitioner who enjoys highly collaborative working in a friendly and positive environment, where they share ideas and strive to maintain the highest educational standards in order to achieve outstanding outcomes for our students.
