Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
Required for a January 2026 or September 2026 start, an enthusiastic and dedicated full time or part time teacher of Maths.

What the school offers its staff
What Ferndown Can Offer You:
• Great students who behave – you can make a difference to their learning.
• The opportunity to work with outstanding colleagues.
• Tight, robust behaviour systems.
• Centralised detentions, including homework detentions (you do not need to organise/run/chase), helping to underpin behaviour, so you are free to teach.
• Ongoing ‘no-stakes’ feedback, helping you to continuously develop.
• We believe that trusting our staff with autonomy helps to develop a strong staff culture.
• Centralised, shared units of work and resources.
• Excellent, ongoing CPD, career development and promotion opportunities.
• A well-kept site and a very pleasant location in beautiful Dorset.
• Private Healthcare Cash Back Plan including 24/7 access to a GP by phone, gym discounts and cashback for optical, dental and other appointment expenses for employees and their children.
• Access to the staff benefits and discounts portal through Dorset Council.
Commitment to safeguarding
This school is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful candidate will be required to have an Enhanced Disclosure & Barring Service check (formerly CRB) in line with the Governments safer recruitment guidelines. Ferndown Upper School values the diversity of our workforce and welcome applications from all sections of the community. This role is UK based and your Right to Work will need to be established as part of the appointment process. The school will conduct online searches of shortlisted candidates.
