Key Stage 3 Maths Co-ordinator

Blackfen School is a progressive and vibrant learning community that focuses on raising the aspirations and releasing the potential of every young person in our care. In 2025, 61% of students in year 11 achieved five or more GCSE 9-4 grades, including at least a 4 in English and a 4 in Mathematics. Progress was also strong. At A level in 2024/2025, 50.8% of grades were at A*-B. Similarly, high levels were achieved in Level 3 BTEC qualifications. Our Governors want to appoint well-qualified, motivated and innovative teachers who are committed to raising achievement and have the capacity to make an impact on the progress of our students and the culture of school life. The Maths faculty works as an effective team ensuring outstanding standards at all Key Stages. Ambition for excellence, a passion for student achievement and the desire to develop professional skills within a supportive learning community will characterise applications for this post. The ideal candidate will have the experience of improving student outcomes. The successful candidate will be required to undertake a Disclosure and Barring Check. This post is considered to be a customer-facing position; as such it falls within scope of the Code of Practice on English language requirement for public sector workers. The school therefore has a statutory duty under Part 7 of the Immigration Act 2016 to ensure that the post holders have a command of spoken English sufficient for the effective performance of the job requirements. The appropriate standards are set out in the person specification. These will be applied during the recruitment / selection and probationary stages. We in Blackfen School for Girls are committed to practice that which protects children from harm. Staff and volunteers in this organisation accept and recognise our responsibilities to develop awareness of the issues which cause children harm. We believe all children have a right to attend school and learn in a safe environment
