Maths Teacher Job at Randstad (Watford)

Job Description

We are seeking a dedicated Qualified Primary Maths Teacher (QTS mandatory) to join our partner Primary School in Watford for a long-term or permanent placement starting in September 2026. This forward-thinking school heavily prioritises analytical skills, practical problem-solving, and STEM integration. As a full-time mathematics specialist, you will take full responsibility for planning and delivering a vibrant, inclusive primary maths curriculum-helping pupils overcome 'maths anxiety,' master core arithmetic, and develop critical thinking skills that last a lifetime.

Job Responsibility

Inspirational Maths Delivery: Plan, prepare, and teach high-quality mathematics lessons across Key Stages 1 and 2, ensuring strict alignment with the National Curriculum frameworks
Maths Mastery Frameworks: Implement concrete-pictorial-abstract (CPA) approaches to ensure pupils develop a deep, structural understanding of mathematical concepts rather than just memorising procedures
Targeted Learning Interventions: Design and deliver tailored reasoning and problem-solving sessions to stretch higher-ability pupils while providing robust catch-up support for those closing learning gaps
Progress Assessment & Tracking: Utilise formal and formative assessment data to track arithmetic fluency, mathematical reasoning, and times-table progress, adapting lessons to support all learners
Inclusive Classroom Leadership: Manage and deploy classroom Teaching Assistants effectively to support pupils with Special Educational Needs (SEND) and English as an Additional Language (EAL)
Whole-School Numeracy Advocacy: Lead internal maths initiatives, coordinate engaging activities for Numbers Day or World Maths Day, and collaborate with parents to support numeracy learning at home

Requirements

Qualified Teacher Status (QTS): Mandatory
A proven track record of teaching primary maths or general primary education within a UK school setting. (ECTs with a strong maths specialism are welcome)
A deep, up-to-date knowledge of the primary mathematics curriculum, reasoning strands, and the tools required to build arithmetic fluency
The ability to maintain a highly organised, positive, and structured learning environment where mistakes are celebrated as a vital part of the learning journey
The professional reliability to take on a full-time, full-responsibility classroom role starting in September 2026
An enhanced Child DBS on the Update Service (or a willingness to process a new one via Randstad)
