DEPUTY CURRICULUM LEADER: MATHEMATICS
MPS/UPS + TLR 2B
Required from 1st September 2020
Opportunities don’t come around like this very often. We wish to appoint an ambitious and motivated teacher with a high level of subject expertise and the interpersonal skills necessary to support a newly appointed curriculum leader of a large team of staff, in developing the curriculum, further improving the quality of teaching, and ensuring that our students enjoy maths and achieve highly. You will be joining a rapidly improving and growing school, a Headteacher who took up post in 2017, and an excellent group of leaders and teachers who are now having a significant impact on the quality of teaching and outcomes. With a new ethos and uniform in place, excellent behaviour and an aspirational culture, we want to achieve more. We received a very positive Ofsted inspection in May 2018, where our leadership & management, 6th form, and students’ personal development, behaviour and welfare, were all graded “Good”. Our A Level progress figures in 2018 were the best in Durham, and we have made significant improvements to our curriculum and teaching, and to reducing teacher workload.
Framwellgate School Durham is a rapidly growing 11-18 non-selective secondary school and Single Academy Trust. The school roll will have increased by 25% in two years and by September 2020 we will be oversubscribed with more than 1300 students on roll.
The successful candidate will possess the subject expertise to teach GCSE and A Level maths. They will believe that every young person deserves the very best education. A commitment to raising achievement, and a willingness to learn, train and develop as a teacher and leader are all essential. We can offer you an environment where student behaviour is excellent, prior attainment levels are amongst the highest in the North-East, and our students and staff are a pleasure to work with. With over 20 new teachers appointed over the last two years, we have quickly become a vibrant and exciting school in which to develop your career.
This job is suitable for strong maths teachers who wish to develop their leadership skills. Ideally you will be able to visit and meet with the Head Teacher prior to submitting an application. If you would like to arrange a visit please contact Fiona Thompson, Executive Assistant at Thompson.f@framdurham.com to make arrangements.
