About Us
Permanent full time
Full-time equivalent Salary between £58,856 - £75,013 and MPS/UPS (Inner London) including TLR 1.2
To start January or September 2027
As one of the most successful and over-subscribed, non-selective schools in South West London, we are a truly inclusive and dynamic place to work.
Saint Cecilia’s Church of England School is an inclusive, co-educational and community orientated academy, for pupils and students, aged 11-18 years. Specialising in the teaching of Music and Mathematics, Saint Cecilia’s is a well-respected and hugely oversubscribed school. Teaching is exceptional, our curriculum is challenging, standards of behaviour are high and our results are consistently good.
The school’s vision is driven by its Christian mission to ‘Glorify God, through outstanding and enjoyable education’, which is underpinned by John 10:10 “I have come that you may have life, and have it to the full.” Whilst candidates must be in sympathy with the aims of a voluntary-aided Church of England school, a Christian commitment is not essential for this post.
We are looking for an inspirational and effective Curriculum Team Leader for Maths to join a successful and dedicated team.
