At GCSE we follow the 9-1 Edexcel course and we also follow Edexcel at Key Stage 5 for Advanced Level Mathematics and Further Mathematics. Further details regarding our curriculum can be found on our website.

Outside of the classroom, the team provide a wide range of support and opportunities for students including the UKMT Maths Challenge. The team are reflective in their practice and there is a strong culture of nurture and support for new colleagues. The embedded use of IT within the curriculum, especially the use of Interactive Whiteboards, has helped students in their learning. The team are always looking to develop their pedagogy, especially in how challenging concepts are modelled and explained and how learners understanding is checked and reviewed.

Applications are welcomed from qualified teachers early in their career, who will be well supported by our mentors, or from more experienced candidates where there are exceptional opportunities for further professional development and promotion. We offer candidates the opportunity to teach both A level Maths and Further Maths.

What the school offers its staff

The King’s (The Cathedral) School is a very special place to work educating children from seven years old through to eighteen. The School has an incredibly strong reputation in the area and is one of a very small number of state Schools that has retained close links to the Cathedral dating all the way back to 1541. The School is heavily oversubscribed, staff retention is very high, and staff will typically choose to send their own children to the school for their education. The School places a real emphasis on students achieving well academically alongside participating in a wide range of sporting, musical and leadership opportunities. In July 2024, the School was judged as Outstanding in every category.
