Since 2020 we have grown rapidly and this is an exciting opportunity for a candidate who will inspire, set the highest of standards and build systems to ensure that as we continue to grow we set the scene for future excellence. We have high levels of interest in International A level Mathematics and International A level Further Mathematics, and we are seeking colleagues who have experience in delivering these advanced courses. Our students in years 10 and 11 work towards sitting IGCSE Mathematics, and for some IGCSE Further Mathematics. Looking ahead, we hope to introduce the AQA Mathematical Studies qualification to our array of options.
