The School

This is an exciting opportunity to contribute to the opening of a new provision within a successful and popular 11-19 inner-city comprehensive school. The school is especially committed to creative teaching and learning. We aim that every colleague has excellent professional development which leads to every student having an outstanding education. Stoke Newington School is dedicated to being anti-racist, and inclusive, by striving hard to challenge through our curriculum. 

In collaboration with Hackney Education, the school is establishing a 32‑place Additional Resource Provision (ARP) for students with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs as their primary area of need. The ARP, located opposite the main school site at SNS Hub, allows students to follow a bespoke mainstream education while receiving specialist support. 

The Post

The ARP Maths Teacher will play a key role in delivering high‑quality English teaching within the ARP. Based primarily at the ARP, you will raise academic outcomes for students with SEMH needs ensuring access to a curriculum that supports personal development, emotional wellbeing, and progression into further learning. You may also be expected to work with students receiving ARP support in the main school, particularly those integrating from the ARP into main school lessons.

Due to the small size of the provision that operates on its own site, you will not be scheduled for a full timetable of classroom teaching. As a result, you will also be required to deliver targeted small‑group interventions, supervise or lead therapeutic or enrichment activities, and supervise student lunchtimes that would not typically fall within the remit of teaching staff in the main school. This broader range of responsibilities is essential to maintaining a high‑quality, nurturing environment where students form strong relationships with staff.

You will work closely as an ARP team to ensure students are engaged, make excellent progress, and are successfully supported in their educational journey. We are also committed to ensuring that ARP staff are fully included in the wider school community, recognising that integration is vital for staff wellbeing and a well-aligned quality of education.
