We are seeking to appoint a dynamic, ambitious and passionate teacher to join our strong and high-performing mathematics team. We are looking for someone who is an excellent teacher and mathematician and who can promote their love of maths to our students. This is an exciting opportunity for an excellent classroom practitioner to join a fantastic team and school. We welcome applications from ECT teachers just starting out on their teaching career and can offer a very supportive approach to the ECT programme; we also welcome applications from more experienced teachers. A passion for maths and the ability to share this passion with students is key.

The successful candidate will join a close, friendly and supportive team of teachers, all of whom are specialists in the subject. We are looking for a candidate with the skills and experience to make a real difference and develop our students’ love of Maths. We are looking for someone who will be a team player in this oversubscribed, friendly and high-achieving school where we challenge all students and staff to be the best they can be.

We are looking for:

• a teacher of mathematics with a track record of excellent student progress (either from an ITT programme or current/previous post)
• a strong presence and the ability to form excellent relationships with students, and all stakeholders
• an innovative thinker who is able to find creative solutions and think on their feet
• a driven and motivated professional who works hard and always strives to ensure students have the very best learning experience in mathematics

We are looking for someone with the commitment and energy to continue to drive forward our high standards and high outcomes in mathematics. Our teachers also have excellent support from our extended Student Support Team, including the Welfare Team, Engagement Team and Learning Support team. We have a team of excellent and dedicated teachers, tutors and Middle Leaders across the school and our students are a delight to work with and achieve consistently excellent progress in their GCSEs (P8 + 0.88 2024).

We have a strong induction programme for all new staff, and support staff through their ECT programme, and support more experienced staff with undertaking NPQs. As part of a multi academy trust there are many opportunities for collaboration and sharing of good practice across the member schools.

Our maths department have been embedding a teaching for mastery curriculum into KS3 over the last three years. In KS4, students follow the exam board specification for Edexcel in preparation for their GCSE exams. We also offer the Level 2 Certificate in Further Maths for our highest achieving students in Year 11. The curriculum has been designed collaboratively with maths leaders and teachers within the WMAT. The department are also involved with the Teaching for Mastery working group through the North-East Hants and Surrey Maths Hub which provides lots of CPD opportunities.

We are an oversubscribed and friendly school with big ambitions and our staff and students are “proud to belong … proud to achieve”. Our growing school has undergone significant refurbishment over the last three years, including a recent state-of-the-art extension to our Drama studio and a new English block and library completed in August 2024.

We are an 11-16 Academy of 900 students and our school is situated in a fantastic location on the outskirts of Haslemere. Haslemere lies in Surrey, on the border with Hampshire and West Sussex and we have excellent road and rail links to neighbouring counties. We are situated just 3 minutes’ drive off the main A3 and we are also fortunate to have a train station in Haslemere on the mainline from Portsmouth to London Waterloo. This makes us very accessible from the South Coast or outer London areas by train or car.
