Murray Park School is a rewarding and professionally stimulating place to work. Over the last 3 years we have undergone a journey of rapid improvement; moving from a Requires Improvement Ofsted grading to Good in September 2022, along with a much-improved Progress 8 score, as well as now being over-subscribed. Never complacent, we are now on our next stage of development and seek high-quality staff to enable this.

All staff receive a comprehensive induction programme.

We are seeking to appoint an ambitious and committed leader who:

• Can quickly become influential in raising achievement within our Maths Faculty.
• Has a strong belief that all students can fulfil their potential, regardless of ability or background.
• Possesses the personal qualities to inspire, motivate, support and appropriately challenge colleagues and students.
• Will work closely with the Head of Maths to ensure the continued development and smooth running of the Faculty.
• Is keen to take a leading role in the ongoing development of our continually improving Key Stage 3 provision.
• We are looking for someone with a strong commitment to the continuous improvement of their own practice, regardless of career stage, job role or position.

Staff at Murray Park School benefit from:

• Flexible working for all staff.
• Senior Leadership Team who prioritise staff well-being and consider this when launching any new systems or pedagogical approaches.
• A robust and centralised behaviour system, including an internal Alternative Provision, to ensure learning in our classrooms is disruption free.
• A whole-school CPD package which includes the sharing of recent research and best-practice.
• An approach to pedagogy which ensures teachers teach the highest-quality lessons possible, whilst still allowing teachers the freedom to maintain professional autonomy.
