Swindon, United Kingdom Great Western Academy Full time

Teacher of Mathematics with TLR 2a (£3,214) for Key Stage Leadership

Required for September 2024. Full-time or part-time. Main/Upper Pay Scale 

Would you like to join one of the best Mathematics departments in the region and grow your teaching career in our dynamic and growing school? A TLR payment is available to lead an aspect of the work of the mathematics faculty. This will be to take the leadership of Key Stage 3, 4 or 5 Maths – we can be flexible about which. Applicants should state their preference for which Key Stage they believe they would make the most impact with, and why.

Great Western Academy opened in brand new, state-of-the-art facilities in North Swindon in September 2018. The Academy is heavily oversubscribed in all years and our first cohorts of A-level students celebrated exceptional outcomes over the past three summers, with strong destinations for all including three Oxbridge students. We now have six groups of A-level Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Core Mathematics. At GCSE our first set of results reflected strong positive progress in Maths across all prior attainment groups, with 74% achieving grade 4 or above, 52% grade 5 or above. The foundations we have laid in Mathematics are excellent; our team of experienced staff ensure students enjoy their learning, and the progress made by our students is excellent.

This role will provide the successful applicant with the chance to further develop and teach an exciting Mathematics curriculum in KS3 and KS4 as well as the option to teach A-level Mathematics, Further Mathematics and Core Mathematics if desired. You will be part of a dynamic and growing Mathematics teaching team and you will therefore have the chance to significantly shape the experiences of our students in the subject as they progress through our growing school. You will also be well supported to enjoy and develop your own practice, whether you are an NQT or more experienced.

There is the potential for this role to develop as the school and Sixth Form grows further, with various leadership opportunities becoming available in future years, both subject and whole-school based. Our priority is very much to recruit the best classroom practitioners who can ensure our students arrive at the Academy excited about the day ahead and leave each day talking about the excellent learning they have experienced.

Great Western Academy runs a successful enrichment program for all students from 3.10 to 4.15 on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. The subjects studied are as diverse as Astronomy, Orchestra, Volleyball, Pokemon and Scrabble. Enrichment broadens and deepens a student’s range of experiences at school and gives them the opportunity to learn with other age groups. All teachers will run one enrichment session a week as part of their directed hours. It is an opportunity to engage students’ interest in an area of your own interest. 

Great Western Academy aims to radically improve the life chances of every student who attends. Our brand-new building and state-of-the-art facilities help us to achieve this, but it is the fantastic team of staff who turn our vision into reality. If you have the proven ability to inspire students in the classroom and beyond then this provides you with an exciting opportunity to further shape your practice and develop your career.

Additional benefits of working at GWA include: 

·        Average class sizes of 26 in years 7 to 11 

·        Flexible working opportunities 

·        Excellent CPD opportunities 

·        State of the art facilities 

·        Leading edge ICT, including a laptop provided for all staff 

·        Free Health and Wellbeing Support Service

·        Easy access to the A419, and free parking
