About the Post

We are looking to appoint an exceptional and inspirational Teacher of Mathematics to join our highly successful Maths department at Twynham School. This is a rare and exciting opportunity to become part of a high‑performing subject area and to contribute to our shared vision for excellence.

Mathematics is a core subject and the key that opens doors for all students. At Twynham School, we are proud of our students’ great success at GCSE, which reflects the strength and ambition of our large, thriving department. From the moment students arrive in Year 7, they are supported to achieve their very best, with additional Maths provision and a full‑time HLTA dedicated to the subject. This ensures that every child has the opportunity to build confidence and make rapid progress. At Twynham Sixth Form, Maths is one of our most popular A level subjects, and we are delighted to also offer Core Maths and Further Maths at KS5. This breadth of provision demonstrates our commitment to equipping students with the skills and resilience they need to thrive in higher education, employment, and beyond.

This post would suit a colleague in the early stages of their career who is looking for a role that offers outstanding future opportunities. The Twynham School and The Grange School federation (Twynham TGS) is firmly established in Christchurch, offering unlimited potential to deliver a truly exceptional vision for young people across the town. Working across two schools and two different contexts provides unrivalled professional development for an ambitious teacher.

We are also proud to be part of the Bournemouth Bay Teacher Training Partnership, with the motto train local, teach local. We are committed to supporting colleagues as they begin their journey into the profession, offering an excellent two‑year ECT induction programme and continuing professional development throughout your career.

This is a truly exceptional opportunity for a talented and ambitious colleague who will relish the chance to teach Mathematics within a high‑performing and well‑established department, deliver exceptional extra‑curricular opportunities within and beyond the subject, and contribute to our vision for education across Christchurch.
