We are a successful school, which is evident in our attainment journey over the past 5 years. Liberton serves a socially diverse community where 70% of our students live in quintile 1 and 2 of the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation, and many of our families join us from a variety of different countries and cultures. This all adds to our pride in that our School represents a community where each individual is valued and respected and welcome for who they are.

Our core school belief is that ‘Everyone Matters’ this is visible and lived by pupils, staff and families. It is underpinned by our values of Ready, Respectful and Responsible. We believe in positive relationships for learning, and that every person has the right to achieve, and exceed their potential.

Due to staffing changes within the department, an opportunity has arisen for a qualified Mathematics teacher or a qualified Primary teacher with the ability to teach S1-S3 Maths to join our Mathematics department. We are looking for a candidate who can add their experience and knowledge to existing teaching and introduce new ideas and strategies appropriate to our learners.

Salaries will be in accordance with the Scheme of Salaries and Conditions of Service for Teaching Staff in School Education.
This post is regulated work with children and/or protected adults under the Protection of Vulnerable Groups (Scotland) Act 2007. The preferred candidate will be required to join the PVG Scheme or undergo a PVG Scheme update check. Where an individual has spent a continuous period of 3 months or more out with the UK in the last 5 years, an Overseas Criminal Record Check will be required. You will be required to provide this check. An unconditional offer of employment and commencement in the post will be subject to the outcome of both these pre-employment checks being deemed satisfactory.

We're committed to creating a workplace culture where all our people feel valued, included and able to be their best at work, and we recognise the benefits that a diverse workforce with different values, beliefs, experience, and backgrounds brings to us as an organisation.
