Teacher of Mathematics

We are looking to recruit an enthusiastic and knowledgeable Mathematics teacher to join our Queens’ School community from September 2025.

Our Mathematics Faculty has a track record of excellent teaching and student progress, is forward thinking and committed to high standards in student achievement at all levels.

This position offers an exciting opportunity for either a recently qualified teacher or for someone looking to broaden their teaching experience in a school and faculty in which scholarship- inspiring a love of learning and pursuing and celebrating aspiration- is a core value.

The successful candidate will be a highly motivated individual who is keen not only to contribute to developing and collaborating on resourcing and best practice pedagogy, but also to take a lead in their own personal development, keeping abreast of change and sharing experience, knowledge and ideas with the Maths team. Their allocated teaching will range across all ages; an ability to deliver Mathematics and/or Further Mathematics A-Level is desirable.
