Our students are amazing.  They are intelligent, articulate, funny, welcoming and appreciative of great teaching.  They deserve the best and we intend to make sure that this is what they receive, in every subject, every day of their school lives. 

To do this we need outstanding teachers who are dedicated, passionate, dynamic, caring and inspiring.  We strongly feel we have a world class staff team and we are looking for someone to join one of the strongest teams within it.

We are currently looking for an inspirational Maths teacher who has the skills and experience to continue to deliver the excellent outcomes we have come to expect from our Maths team. We are looking for a Maths teacher who will support the team in promoting the value and importance of Maths through creativity and innovation within the classroom.

In addition our staff are all expected to have strong inclusive values and play a significant pastoral role, ensuring all our students feel cared for. We pride ourselves on strong relationships with students and the role of the form tutor is the most important one for each student.

The school boosts outstanding facilities in all areas, reflecting our commitment to our staff and students in ensuring the very best conditions for learning.

Baysgarth School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.  The successful applicant will be required to apply for enhanced disclosure from the DBS.
