Teacher of Mathematics

Job details

Required from September 2025

We are seeking to appoint a well-qualified and enthusiastic teacher of mathematics to join an innovative, vibrant and supportive department where teachers are committed to developing learning strategies which challenge and interest all of our students.

 

The successful candidate will join a thriving mathematics faculty comprising eight teachers, each with their own classroom.  The success of the faculty is reflected in the strong uptake of maths courses at key stage five: next year will see two mathematics A-level classes, one further mathematics A-level class and a core maths class running.  We are seeking applications from candidates with the expertise to teach these courses. 

 

You will possess energy, enthusiasm and the desire to inspire a love of mathematics. You will be responsible for delivering mathematics lessons in line with relevant curriculum requirements, ensuring high standards of teaching and learning are maintained, whilst collaborating with the wider faculty to sustain and maximise student progress.

 

We are committed to developing our staff through first class induction and high-quality professional development.  As a result, a large proportion of JMHS staff have achieved promotion to middle and senior leadership positions.

 

JMHS was last inspected by OFSTED in November 2022 who confirmed our good grading and whose comments included:

• Pupils behave well. They are polite to their teachers and considerate of their peers.
• Parents rate teachers’ high expectations because they push pupils to do more. Many say teachers go ‘above and beyond’ for their children.
• Pupils can do unusual stuff at this exciting school
• School leaders have constructed a rich and engaging curriculum

JMHS is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people. The successful candidate will be subject to a Disclosure and Barring Service enhanced check and further pre-employment checks will be conducted in accordance with KCSIE. The post is exempt from the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 and the School is therefore permitted to ask job applicants to declare all convictions and cautions (including those which are "spent" unless they are "protected" under the DBS filtering rules) in order to assess their suitability to work with children. All shortlisted candidates will be subject to a Google search.
