Are you a high-achieving Maths graduate with ambitions to become a teacher?

Would you like to gain structured, hands-on experience in a thriving Brent secondary school before committing to teacher training?

KPI Education are working with an ambitious and forward-thinking secondary school in Brent to appoint a talented Maths Graduate Teaching Assistant. This is an excellent opportunity for an academically strong graduate to play a key role in raising attainment within a high-performing Maths department.

About the School

This Brent secondary school has a strong reputation for academic progress and a clear focus on numeracy across the curriculum. The Maths department is well-resourced, collaborative and driven by high expectations.

The leadership team are experienced in developing graduate talent, with many previous Teaching Assistants progressing into salaried teacher training programmes.

The Role

As a Maths Graduate Teaching Assistant, you will work closely with the Head of Maths and class teachers to support pupils across KS3 and KS4 (with potential exposure to KS5 for strong candidates).

Your responsibilities will include:

• Supporting Maths lessons across Year 7–11
• Delivering targeted 1:1 and small group interventions
• Providing GCSE exam preparation support
• Stretching high-attaining pupils aiming for grades 8–9
• Assisting with lesson planning and resource preparation
• Tracking pupil progress and supporting catch-up strategies

You will gain first-hand experience of curriculum delivery, assessment and behaviour management — ideal preparation for a future PGCE or Schools Direct route.

Who We’re Looking For

• Strong A-Level and GCSE results in Maths
• A clear ambition to pursue a career in teaching
• Excellent numeracy and problem-solving skills
• Confident communicator who can explain mathematical concepts clearly
• Resilient, proactive and professional attitude

Previous tutoring or mentoring experience is advantageous but not essential. Academic strength and a genuine commitment to education are key.

Why Apply?

• Long-term, full-time role (no supply work)
• Join a high-performing Maths department
• Clear pathway into teacher training
• Structured mentoring and professional development
