We are looking for a Teacher of Maths to join our Team from September! Applications are welcomed from candidates seeking either full-time or part-time positions.
Farmor’s School is an 11-18 school in Fairford, a small town in the Cotswolds which is in easy commuting distance from Cirencester, Stroud, Swindon and Cheltenham. Most staff who work at the school live in the Cirencester area, Swindon, Cheltenham and Oxfordshire. Students who attend the school come mainly from eight feeder primary schools in Gloucestershire.
The school is situated in beautiful parkland, within walking distance of the centre of Fairford. The eighteen-acre grounds are well maintained by our site staff and include a modern and well-equipped Sports Centre. The school has a mix of modern and 1960’s build accommodation. We have been working hard over the last few years to improve the teaching and learning environment through a combination of grounds and building works.
