Studio West is an exciting studio school, which opened in September 2014. As part of Kenton School’s Academy Trust, Studio West cater for around 400 students aged between 11 and 19 with student numbers increasing year on year. We have been massively oversubscribed for the last three years and have proved to be one of the most popular schools in the Newcastle area. Rated “Good” by Ofsted, Studio West offers students an innovative and bespoke curriculum with an emphasis on employability and life skills. We have close working relationships with our business partners and our mission is to make sure that every student who leaves Studio West, does so with a university place, an apprenticeship or employment.

We are seeking to appoint a highly motivated, enthusiastic and fully committed mathematics specialist to join our team. The team at present consists of four mathematics specialists who teach in their own dedicated mathematics suite, each classroom is well resourced and fitted with the latest in digital technology. The successful candidate would join us at an exciting time as we begin to offer A Level mathematics to our post 16 students in the newly developed sixth form area for September. The department works closely and collaboratively, supporting and challenging each other to produce the best possible outcomes for our students. At Studio West we teach mathematics using a mastery approach built upon three key principles: deep understanding, mathematical thinking and mathematical language, with problem solving at the heart of our curriculum. Your passion for your subject will be combined with the ability to deliver inspirational and challenging lessons, you will ensure positive behaviour for learning in your lessons and hold high expectations to ensure every child achieves their potential.

This is an exciting opportunity for either an early career or experienced teacher to work with our team of exceptional Learning Coaches to design and deliver focussed sessions that support the learning outcomes of our students. In return, we offer the opportunity to work in an exciting, fast paced, forward-thinking school, as well as in department support, the school also offers an innovative bespoke inhouse professional development programme delivered in a supportive environment where we are committed to the development of both students and our staff.
