KPI Education is delighted to be partnering with a forward-thinking secondary school in Portsmouth that is looking to welcome a high-calibre Mathematics graduate into their teacher training programme for September 2026.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a graduate who is seriously considering a career in teaching and wants to gain real classroom experience while being paid to train. You will work towards Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) through a structured, immersive school-based route designed to develop confident, reflective and highly effective teachers.

What the Role Involves

As a Graduate Maths Teacher Trainee, you will become an integral part of a dynamic Maths department in a supportive Portsmouth secondary school. Your training journey will be carefully structured and progressively build your independence.

You will:

  • Support the delivery of engaging Mathematics lessons across Key Stage 3 and Key Stage 4.
  • Work closely with pupils in small groups and one-to-one sessions to improve understanding and confidence.
  • Learn how to plan, deliver, and assess lessons effectively with expert guidance.
  • Observe outstanding practitioners and gradually implement their strategies into your own teaching.
  • Take part in weekly training sessions focused on classroom management, pedagogy, and curriculum design.
  • Step by step, begin to lead your own lessons as your experience develops.

This role is designed to give you genuine classroom responsibility while ensuring you are fully supported throughout your training year.

What You Will Gain

  • A salaried training position with no tuition fees.
  • A clear pathway to Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) within one year.
  • Option to achieve PGCE accreditation alongside QTS at no additional cost.
  • Daily mentoring from experienced Maths teachers and senior leaders.
  • A structured, school-led training experience rooted in real classroom practice.
  • Gradual increase in responsibility to support professional growth and confidence.
  • Strong long-term career prospects within teaching and education.

Who We Are Looking For

We are keen to hear from graduates who are ready to take the first step into teaching and have a genuine passion for Mathematics.

You should have:

  • A degree in Mathematics or a closely related discipline (2:1 or above preferred).
  • GCSE English and Maths at grade 4/C or equivalent.
  • A clear enthusiasm for working with young people and supporting their learning.
  • Strong communication skills and the ability to build positive relationships.
  • A resilient, motivated, and professional attitude.
  • Eligibility to work in the UK.

Prior school experience is helpful but not essential—what matters most is your commitment, potential, and willingness to learn.

How to Apply

If you are a Mathematics graduate ready to begin a rewarding and structured pathway into teaching, please send your CV to KPI Education.

Interviews are taking place on a rolling basis and may be held online or in person.

Take the first step towards becoming a qualified teacher in a supportive Portsmouth secondary school where your development will be genuinely prioritised.
