At Trinity, we have exceptionally high expectations, a strong sense of community and a deep commitment to belonging, inclusion and academic excellence.

- are able to work independently, managing their own workload and meeting deadlines without close supervision
- are confident, professional communicators, able to liaise with students, families and teachers
- are values driven, reflective, and aligned with Trinity's ethos and culture
In return, we offer:
- A supportive, collaborative team culture
- A strong commitment to professional development at every stage
- Talented colleagues and enthusiastic students
- Financial Support for Career development*
- A fully funded private healthcare package
- Subsidised rates in our on-site gym
This post would suit someone with GCSE (or equivalent) Maths and English at grade 4/C or above, a relevant higher level Maths qualification, and a genuine passion for helping students overcome barriers to learning in mathematics. Those looking to progress to a career in teaching would be supported.
