About the Role

As a teacher at our sixth form college, you will play a key role in delivering engaging and challenging lessons that inspire academic excellence and independent thinking, teaching 16–19-year-olds in A level Mathematics and A level Statistics.

This role also involves contributing to the wider college community through enrichment activities and academic mentoring.

Your Responsibilities

Please see the attached job description for the full responsibilities of this role.

What we are looking for

Sir John Deane's seeks to appoint an enthusiastic teacher to contribute to the work of this thriving department. 

The Mathematics Department is the largest in the College with outstanding outcomes in all three subjects offered: A level Mathematics, A level Further Mathematics and A level Statistics.

We are seeking to appoint an individual with a strong academic background in Mathematics, to cover a period of maternity leave. A love of teaching and who has a passion for all aspects of the subject is essential. A Level experience is not an essential requirement. The successful candidate should have the ability to teach both A level Mathematics and A level Statistics. An ability to teach another A level subject for example: Further Mathematics or Computer Science would be welcomed, but this is not a pre-requisite for the successful applicant.

The person appointed must be willing to:

• bring impactful and evidence-informed approaches to their teaching.
• work as a member of a team, sharing ideas and resources.
• develop relationships with students based upon equality, respect, joy and high aspirations

We are proud that the Sir John Deane’s name has enhanced the career of many colleagues and, together with the professional development we provide, has allowed them to progress into middle and senior management positions. As part of the Sir John Brunner Foundation Multi-Academy Trust, over time, the College will be able to provide professional opportunities in good and outstanding local high schools to help you further develop your career.
