Head of Mathematics
Required for September 2026
We are a school that values diversity and individual contribution, supporting and encouraging staff to pursue their interests and achieve their ambitions.
We are seeking to employ an inspiring and enthusiastic teacher to lead this thriving department of 20 teachers. The Head of Mathematics is supported in their role by a Second and Third in Department, sharing line management, curriculum and enrichment responsibilities. Mathematics is the most popular A Level subject at the School, with around 150 students every year continuing their study of the subject at A Level, with just under half of those also selecting Further Mathematics A Level.
Diversity – The School is fully committed to the principles of equal opportunity, diversity and inclusion. We have an established and representative staff Equality and Diversity Board to help drive forward positive change. A further Equality and Diversity Committee has recently been formed from our student population.
We are committed to attracting and retaining the very best staff, ensuring that our staff body reflects the diversity of our students and local community. Acknowledging a lack of ethnic diversity within our staff community, we particularly encourage applications from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic candidates for this role. All appointments will be made on merit, following a fair and transparent process. In line with the Equality Act 2010, however, the School may employ positive action where diverse candidates can demonstrate their ability to perform the role equally well.
