Job Description

Maths Lecturer

Temporary | Contract

Location: the South East

Are you an experienced maths teacher ready to help post-16 learners gain the qualifications they need to move on?

About the Role

Working with a further education provider in the South East, you'll deliver engaging, high-quality maths teaching to learners across a range of study programmes, helping them build the numeracy skills employers and further study demand.

You'll plan and deliver lessons to mixed-ability groups, assess and track progress, and support learners through their qualifications and on to employment or further study.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Planning and delivering maths lessons to learners of mixed abilities.
  • Preparing schemes of work, lesson resources and assessments.
  • Assessing and monitoring learner progress, and providing constructive feedback.
  • Supporting learners with gaps in their knowledge, building confidence and motivation.
  • Creating a positive, inclusive learning environment where learners feel supported to succeed.
  • Working with colleagues across the team to maintain high standards of teaching and learning.

What We're Looking For

Essential:

  • Strong subject knowledge in maths
  • Experience teaching maths in further education or secondary education
  • Ability to differentiate and adapt teaching to varied learning needs
  • Excellent communication and organisational skills

Desirable (but not essential):

  • A recognised teaching qualification such as QTS, QTLS, PGCE, CertEd or DET
  • Experience supporting resit learners on vocational study programmes

If you're ready to help learners gain the maths qualifications that open doors, we'd love to hear from you.
