Job description

This Secondary School strives to provide all of their pupils with the means to achieve their maximum potential, and to develop individual responsibility and respect for the rights of others by:

  • Pursuing the highest standards in teaching

  • Providing an excellent learning environment

  • Giving equal access to a broad well-resourced curriculum

  • Achieving a partnership between pupils, parents and school.

At their last inspection they were judged to be a ‘Good’ school by Ofsted and well on the way to ‘Outstanding’. One of the inspectors commented that she would gladly send her children to the school.

This school is looking for a maths mentor and it would be an advantage if the candidate could also mentor in science. The school has a successful record of working with mentors and is looking to continue this.
