Location: Newcastle Start Date: ASAP Contract Type: Permanent Positions Available: 7 roles

Veritas Education are working with a large, well‑established further education provider in Newcastle, known for offering high‑quality teaching across a wide range of academic and vocational pathways. The organisation delivers GCSE, Functional Skills, apprenticeships and adult learning, and is recognised for its industry‑leading facilities, hands‑on learning environments, and strong commitment to student support and progress.

They serve a diverse cohort of learners aged 16+ and are one of the biggest education providers in the North East, teaching across numerous subject areas and supporting thousands of students each year.

About the Roles

Due to significant demand, we are urgently seeking multiple permanent Maths Teachers to deliver either:

• Experience teaching GCSE Maths OR Functional Skills Maths
• Background in Secondary or Primary (Maths specialist) teaching
• Ability to inspire confidence and engagement in 16-19 learners
• Strong behaviour management and rapport‑building skills

Why This is a Great Opportunity

• Join one of the region's largest and most respected education providers
• Benefit from modern facilities, specialist teaching spaces and excellent support structures
• Secure a permanent, stable teaching position in a thriving setting
• Make a real difference to young people who need supportive and motivational educators
