Are you a trainee teacher looking for the perfect environment to start your Early Career Framework (ECF) induction?

Randstad Education is proud to support a modern, community-focused secondary school in Witham as they look for their next Maths ECT.

Witham offers a fantastic strategic location for teachers, and this school in particular is known for its "culture of coaching." You will not be thrown into the deep end; instead, you will benefit from a structured support network, a reduced teaching timetable for your first two years, and a dedicated subject-specific mentor to help you master your classroom craft.

Key Responsibilities

• Dynamic Delivery: Teach Mathematics across KS3 and KS4, utilising the school's "Maths Mastery" approach to build student confidence.
• Professional Growth: Engage fully in the ECF induction, using your non-contact time for observations, research, and mentor meetings.
• Inclusive Practice: Use data-driven insights to tailor your lessons for students with diverse needs, ensuring every child can solve problems effectively.
• Curriculum Innovation: Contribute fresh ideas to departmental planning, bringing the latest pedagogical theories from your training into the classroom.
• Community Engagement: Participate in the wider life of the school, from extra-curricular maths clubs to house events.

Requirements

• Status: On track to achieve Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) by Summer 2026, or a recent graduate looking for a supportive new setting.
• Expertise: A strong degree in Mathematics (or a related subject) and a passion for making "scary" topics like Algebra and Calculus approachable.
• Resilience: A positive, "can-do" attitude and a willingness to reflect on and act upon constructive feedback.
• Local Commitment: A desire to work in the Witham/Mid-Essex area and become a stable figure in the students' educational journey.
• Compliance: Enhanced Child DBS on the Update Service.
