• Adapting teaching to meet the needs of all learners, including SEND, EAL and high-ability students
• Using assessment effectively to monitor progress and inform teaching
• Promoting mathematical literacy, reasoning and problem-solving skills
• Creating a positive, inclusive classroom environment with strong behaviour routines
• Contributing to curriculum development and departmental planning
• Working collaboratively with colleagues, parents and support staff to ensure student success

• Is passionate about delivering high-quality teaching and learning
• Has high expectations for student achievement and behaviour
