Brighton College Teacher of Mathematics
Brighton College is seeking to appoint a full-time Teacher of Mathematics, starting January 2027. We would also consider applicants who are available to start earlier, or April 2027.
The Department
Mathematics is one of the most popular and successful academic subjects at Brighton. We have over 200 pupils, close to 80% of the year group, studying maths in each of Years 12 and 13, with close to half of those also opting for further maths. Whilst a core subject in Year 11, we also have 40-50% of the cohort taking the AQA Level 2 Certificate in Further Maths.
The results in recent years have been excellent, with the pupils regularly achieving 100% 9-6 at IGCSE with more grade 9s counting for more than 60% of all grades. At A-level, 98%+ achieved A*-B in both single and further maths in the past few years, with well over 50% of all grades being A*. The department has a comprehensive Oxbridge programme, with much success in this area.
