  • Strong subject knowledge in maths, with a degree-level qualification or equivalent
  • Experience teaching maths in further education or secondary education

  • Excellent communication and organisational skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, CertEd, DET or Level 5 Diploma in Education and Training
