Job Description

GCSE Maths Lecturer

Temporary

Location: the North West

Start date: 16 November 2026

About the Role

You'll deliver GCSE Maths to learners at a further education provider, supporting students who are resitting the qualification alongside their vocational programmes to achieve the grade they need.

You'll plan and teach engaging sessions for mixed-ability groups, building the confidence of learners who may have found maths difficult in the past, and tracking their progress closely so that support is in place where gaps appear.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering engaging GCSE Maths lessons to learners of mixed abilities.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessments.
  • Marking learner work and providing timely, constructive feedback.
  • Monitoring learner progress and putting additional support in place where it is needed.
  • Working alongside the wider maths and curriculum teams.
  • Maintaining high standards of classroom management and a positive learning environment.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Experience teaching GCSE Maths in further education or a secondary setting
  • Strong understanding of the GCSE specification and effective resit strategies
  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, CertEd, DET or a Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training, or equivalent
  • Ability to adapt teaching to varied learning needs
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • Experience teaching Functional Skills Maths
  • Experience supporting learners on vocational programmes

If you're ready to help learners gain the maths qualification that opens up their next step, we'd love to hear from you.
