We are seeking an enthusiastic, energetic, and motivational Teacher of Mathematics to deliver outstanding teaching from Key Stage 3 up to A Level from September. This is an exciting opportunity to join a well-established and resourced department who are passionate about inspiring the next generation of mathematicians. Candidates should be keen to support the co-curricular aspects of the school by taking a lead in the offering of clubs, competitions, seminars, trips, and visits. Applications are welcome from teachers at any stage in their careers.

The Mathematics department is currently staffed by 4 full time and 4 part time staff, who work closely together as a team. The department office is very collegial, ensuring free exchange of resources and ideas. Each teacher has their own, well-equipped classroom with interactive board. The department uses Smart notebook, OneNote, Sparx, Dr Frost Learning and is keen to embrace any technology that aids our pedagogy.

In Year 7, students at Halliford are taught Mathematics by one teacher (across 5 x 40-minute lessons per week) in equal ability groups. From Year 8, students are set and still taught by one teacher (across 5 x 40-minute lessons per week). All students in Years 10 and 11 follow the Edexcel IGCSE higher tier Mathematics course. The top set in Year 10 have the opportunity to sit their IGCSE early and to then take the Level 2 AQA Further Mathematics course in Year 11. During all stages the department aims to develop students’ problem-solving skills and love of the subject.

At A Level, Students study the Edexcel Mathematics specification. A Level classes benefit from 8 x 40-minute lessons per week (5 for Pure Mathematics and 3 for Applied Mathematics). The department also offers Further Mathematics at A Level.
