Aspiring Head of Maths

Start date: September 2024

Location:  Kettering, Northamptonshire 

Salary: MS/UPS plus TLR1d or 1c (dependent upon experience)

Hours per week:  Full time, Permanent

Teaching Personnel are working with one of our partner secondary schools who are seeking a talented, ambitious and hardworking colleague to join their Maths team in an exciting role as an Aspiring Head of Maths. This is a new role which has been created to help them on the next stage of their development journey. The school achieved an Ofsted 'Good' in July 2023, and they are now looking to consolidate and embed their practice where it matters most - in the classroom and at middle leadership level.

The school are particularly interested in hearing from colleagues who have already had experience of department leadership within a Maths team - perhaps as a second in department, or key stage lead. They are looking for someone who can demonstrate impact in raising standards, developing curriculum and pedagogy, and leading other colleagues.   The successful candidate will play a lead role in helping shape the next phase of improvement in this core subject and will be someone who will be ready to be a Head of Department within 12-24 months. The successful candidate will be provided with a bespoke programme to help develop them for the Head of Maths role and this will involve coaching and mentoring support from colleagues within the school and within the Trust more widely, including the Trust Director of Maths.

You will be joining the school at a time where they are setting out an ambitious plan for the future based around three key themes of belonging, reflection, and collaboration. Ultimately, they exist to enable everyone connected with the school to be the best they can be. They are clear that all children deserve their unwavering and unconditional regard, and they have ambitious plans for making this a reality in all their classrooms. 

If you enjoy being challenged and are not afraid to offer challenge, if you believe that it is your duty to ensure that all children have a voice and can be themselves, and if you want to be part of a team who believes that anything is possible, then this is the role for you. 

What they can offer you:

· Daily allowance for breakfast and lunch.

· A modern building with fantastic facilities and resources.

· A supportive and friendly community of staff and students.

· A full induction programme.

· Access to training and development programmes.

About the school

The school was delighted to receive a Good Ofsted rating in July 2023. This report recognised the work which has been done over many years in relentlessly focussing on providing stimulating learning experience for all their students. They actively encourage students to participate in all areas of academy life, motivating and inspiring them to unlock their potential and realise their ambitions. They believe education is about more than achieving success in exams; it is about preparing students for the challenges and demands of life beyond education. Staff have an uncompromising commitment to this and work closely with one another to support and develop students as well as one another.
