Job description

Cambridge Maths School (CMS) is a specialist sixth form highly specialised developed in association with the University of Cambridge, which opened in September 2023 with a focus on pioneering learning and increasing diversity in the field of mathematical sciences. The school provides a diverse range of young people with access to a unique educational experience, located in bespoke facilities on Mill Road in Cambridge and is open to A-Level students aged 16 to 19 from across the East of England. All students study maths and further maths and can then choose physics, chemistry, biology or computer science A-Levels. The School aims to attract more female students, those from minority ethnic groups, and socially and educationally disadvantaged backgrounds. It is part of a nationwide network of maths schools.
