Start Date: January 2027 (Winter Term Start)

An Ofsted-rated 'Outstanding' secondary school and Sixth Form in the London Borough of Redbridge is seeking an articulate, highly analytical, and dynamic Teacher of Mathematics to join their prestigious Mathematics & Quantitative Reasoning faculty this January . Set within a high-achieving Outer London borough renowned for academic excellence and strong community values, this mid-year appointment offers an exceptional opportunity for a Mathematics specialist—whether an experienced practitioner eager to teach A-Level Core, Mechanics, or Statistics, or an ambitious Early Career Teacher (ECT)—to cultivate mathematical fluency, problem-solving resilience, and logical rigor across a top-tier student body.

About the Role

Stepping into the department for the January term, you will translate abstract mathematical concepts, algebraic proof, calculus, and statistical modeling into high-rigor, engaging learning experiences. Joining a collaborative, high-performing team, you will deliver compelling lessons across Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4 (GCSE Mathematics / Higher Tier), and Key Stage 5 (A-Level Mathematics / Further Mathematics / Level 3 Core Maths), equipping students with the numerical mastery and analytical precision required for competitive university courses and STEM careers.

• Environment: A state-of-the-art Outer London campus featuring dedicated mathematics suites, interactive display tech, digital graphing tools, and small-group Sixth Form seminar spaces

• Culture: An academically ambitious, supportive learning environment focused on mathematical reasoning, Olympiad challenges, high expectations, and outstanding examination outcomes

Key Responsibilities

• Plan and deliver academically rich, safe, and engaging Mathematics lessons across Key Stages 3, 4, and 5 covering pure mathematics, mechanics, statistics, and logical problem-solving.

• Prepare GCSE and A-Level candidates thoroughly for national written examinations through explicit modeling of multi-step problem solving, proof structures, and data-driven progress tracking.

• Foster a classroom culture that builds mathematical confidence, logical resilience, and fluency in handling complex calculations and geometric reasoning.

• Track, evaluate, and monitor student progress systematically, executing targeted extension activities to stretch high-aspiring mathematicians targeting Oxbridge and Russell Group STEM pathways while scaffolding foundational skills for developing learners.

• Contribute actively to departmental enrichment, including the UKMT Mathematical Challenges, cipher clubs, chess societies, and university entrance test mentoring (MAT/TMUA/STEP).

Requirements

• Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or an equivalent recognized teaching credential.

• A strong academic degree in Mathematics, Statistics, Physics, Engineering, or a closely related quantitative discipline.

• Proven track record or demonstrated capability of delivering outstanding Mathematics instruction across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4 (KS5/A-Level Mathematics teaching capability is essential; Further Maths capability is a strong advantage).

• Comprehensive working knowledge of national examination board specifications (e.g., Edexcel, AQA, OCR) and evidence-informed pedagogical practices in mathematics education.

• Exceptional classroom presence, strong analytical communication skills, and an infectious enthusiasm for mathematical inquiry and numerical reasoning.

Salary & Benefits

• Pay Scale: Outer London Main / Upper Pay Scale (MPS/UPS Outer London, commensurate with experience), with potential TLR opportunities available for Key Stage 5 Math Coordinator, Further Maths Lead, or Numeracy Lead.

• Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS), comprehensive continuous professional development (CPD), structured middle leadership mentoring, and access to staff health and wellbeing schemes.
