As a popular and successful school we are always excited to strengthen our team.
Following an extended period of excellent results we are now seeking a new Head of Maths to continue leading the team. We are looking to employ a well qualified leader with a record of developing Maths teams who in turn deliver high quality lessons with excellent student outcomes.
Maths is taught across all 3 key stages, including GCSE Statistics and A Level Maths and Further Maths. Extra-curricular opportunities are highly-valued with students taking part in many Maths related opportunities and progressing to the full range of universities and mathematical careers.
The team is made up of supportive and highly committed subject specialists.
In September 2015 the school moved into an award-winning new building, where Maths is taught on a single floor, with and in the Sixth Form building.

The school is located just south of Sudbury in Suffolk and is within easy reach of Colchester, Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds.
