Teacher of Maths – Exceptional Key stage 4 Practitioner
Salary | MPS (UPS where applicable) + TLR 2C (£3,391)
Full Time | Start Date: January 2025
Bloxwich Academy Secondary | Teaching Roles
We are looking for a talented maths teacher who has the knowledge, passion and enthusiasm to get the best out of GCSE pupils. We want someone with exceptional knowledge of the KS4 programmes of study and assessments and a track record of excellent outcomes for pupils are essential.
Does this sound like you? If so, we want to hear from you.
The successful candidate will solely teach KS4 and will be confident in planning and delivering quality lessons as well as robust interventions that will support progress of pupils.
To be clear: this is not the traditional ‘teacher in charge of leading Key Stage 4’ role. This role is for someone who is exceptional in the classroom and wants to continue to improve their classroom practice, inspiring pupils and modelling best practice to others.
This may be your first promotion, having been a successful maths teacher for several years. Perhaps you’ve been reluctant to take on the responsibility of being a subject leader because you wanted to spend as much time in the classroom as possible. Or maybe you’ve been a subject leader and realised you wanted to spend more time with the children.
If any of those descriptions sound like you, this could be your ideal role!
Our exceptional Key Stage 4 practitioner will have the capacity to identify the knowledge gaps for our current Year 10 and 11 pupils and then target their teaching so our young people achieve the best possible outcomes. They will also model their practice to others, working closely with our trust’s maths specialists to hone teaching across the faculty.
Join a school where staff have fantastic opportunities for growth. If you’re new to this position of responsibility, we will support you every step of the way. If you’re eager for further career development in the near future, we will ensure you are supported in your need, whether that be the right qualifications or the right experiences.
Bloxwich Academy is a member of the Matrix Academy Trust family of schools, where staff routinely collaborate to make things the best they can be for every single child. We are committed to fostering a culture that values the health and well-being of every member of our team. We are proud to offer a comprehensive well-being package to all employees, including access to 24/7 online GP (for you and your family), physiotherapy services, counselling services and much more. We also offer all employees annual health checks which includes the flu jab, BMI checks and a general discussion with a qualified Nurse. Our success with reducing teacher workload and improving staff wellbeing has been recognised by many organisations, including the Department for Education.
