Subject Leader for Maths

Are you looking to work in a vibrant and exciting learning community where, through our work with our excellent students, we achieve outstanding results whilst also developing them as well-rounded individuals?

Are you looking to develop your skills as both a teacher and a leader, working closely with and learning from supportive and highly trained colleagues in delivering an exceptional curriculum?

If the answer to both these questions is yes, then we are the school for you! 

Higham Lane School is a leading Warwickshire secondary school performing within the top 15% of schools in England for student progress. As an Aspiring Teaching School, we offer exceptional professional development for staff and highly-effective support for other schools within our local area. We are a knowledge-focussed school where our teachers, as experts in their subjects, provide an outstanding learning experience for our students. We are committed to reducing staff workload by developing more innovative approaches to student feedback and valuing staff well-being.

We are looking to make a permanent appointment for September 2019 of a dynamic Subject Leader for Maths to lead this key department in ensuring students make excellent progress in their learning and to role model highly effective teaching and learning to maximise the achievement of students. We believe this is an exciting opportunity, which will make a key contribution to further enhancing the learning of our students. 

Applications are invited from suitably-qualified and experienced teachers to lead the Maths Department. The successful candidate will be required to teach Maths in Key Stages 3 and 4 and would also be expected to teach KS5 Maths. Previous KS5 experience would therefore be desirable.
