The Trust is at an exciting point in its maths development as, alongside the UEA, the Trust has been awarded a significant grant to establish an East Maths Community across schools in Norfolk. This resource and programme development role is key to the East Maths Community programme and is ideal for a gifted mathematician wanted to develop new inspirational ideas to challenge and inspire young people from KS3 through KS4 into KS5 and beyond. The strong and cohesive central maths team is looking to expand to provide greater support to our schools and beyond. We have one of the country's first maths and science specialist sixth forms and the Angles Maths Hub is based in our trust.
