In this role, you will need to lead on math across the school supporting colleagues teaching Y5-8 and teaching key stage 3 and 4 up to GCSE level with the support of a Learning Support Assistant.

You will undertake the role of a pastoral tutor for a group of named students. In addition, you should have an understanding of strategies and systems which promote successful learning and positive behaviour.
This opportunity to take control of your teaching mixed with a happy work-life balance and the chance to live on an island that has beautiful beaches, cliff walks, lots of outdoor activity options and island hopping trips is unrivalled.
We offer excellent relocation packages as well as other enhanced benefits for housing and rental support, participation in our pension schemes and competitive pay above the UK median.
