An inspiring and enthusiastic teacher is sought who will play a key role in a supportive, collaborative and experienced Mathematics Department. The role would suit either an early career teacher or a teacher seeking further experience. While the ability to teach to A Level might be an advantage this role will be focused on KS3 and KS4.

Students are streamed from Year 7 into two groups, with all groups sitting the GCSE Examination at the end of Year 11. We follow the Edexcel syllabus for GCSE and A level. The department also offers GCSE Statistics as an option subject from year 9 as the popularity for maths continues to increase.

Our teachers ensure that each student is provided with the confidence to develop their knowledge and application of Mathematics from Year 7 through to public examinations. Each student is expected to fulfil their potential in Mathematics within an environment where they are supported and challenged. They are also expected to use these skills to enhance their learning and development throughout the ArtsEd Curriculum within their wider academic and vocational education.

All staff at ArtsEd are expected to sustain and improve the quality of performing arts training and academic education that is offered to the students in the school. Our ethos is one of shared responsibility to which all teachers make a significant contribution. You will be expected to generate, along with the other members of successful department, the vision and ethos for the course and work together to develop the most innovative core units for students.

In 2024, recognising our outstanding curriculum and performing arts achievements, ArtsEd was awarded a ‘significant strength’ by ISI, and the School won the ISA National Award for Excellence.
