Teacher Of Mathematics
About This Role
Please see job pack for detailed information.
The Maths Department is a well organised and highly successful team of 8 teachers, some of whom have
different roles within the school, ranging from ECTs to very experienced teachers. Due to the expansion
of the school, we are looking for an enthusiastic and inspirational teacher to join our team.
Pupils are taught in ability sets, and enjoy coming to Maths lessons because of our strong routines and
excellent teaching. Achievement and progress are regularly reviewed by the whole department to
ensure individual pupils are placed in the correct group for their ability. There are 8 x 1 hour lessons per
fortnight in all year groups. We follow a spiral curriculum, and offer GCSE Maths, GCSE Statistics, Level 2
Certificate in Further Maths and Entry Level Maths. Homework is set online. We also have well established links with our local feeder primary schools.
The aims of the Department are to ensure that our curriculum caters for all levels of achievement, for
pupils to enjoy their maths lessons, feel supported and cared for. We strive for every child to achieve
their full potential. This means that every pupil will leave Hastings with a maths qualification they can be
proud of. But not only this, pupils will be prepared for life.
We pride ourselves on our pupils’ very high standards, which enable us to build on, generally excellent,
Key Stage 2 results. Our GCSE results are significantly above the national average and amongst the best
in the county. The progress made by all our pupils is very strong.
We are all proud to be a part of the Maths Department, and genuinely care about the pupils and each
other.
We aim to provide the best experience for every child, preparing pupils for life beyond Hastings.
If you are interested in joining our team I look forward to meeting you!
S Hayton. Head of Department
