Secondary Mathematics Teacher — Ages 11–18
Secondary mathematics teacher with six years of experience planning ambitious, inclusive learning for pupils aged 11–18. Skilled in assessment for learning, differentiation and curriculum design, with a collaborative approach to department development and enrichment.
Why this works: The subject and ages 11–18 give a school more context than “enthusiastic teacher”. The experience section supports the assessment and curriculum focus; it does not claim improved exam results.
Teacher of Mathematics
Rivermill International School | Birmingham, United Kingdom | Sep 2022 – Present
Teaches mathematics across Key Stages 3–5, planning sequenced lessons and using formative assessment to adapt support and challenge. Contributes to curriculum review, shared resources and parental communication within a collaborative department.
Teacher of Mathematics
Greenfield Secondary Academy | Coventry, United Kingdom | Sep 2020 – Aug 2022
Delivered mathematics lessons for mixed-attainment classes and supported targeted intervention planning. Worked with colleagues on consistent assessment routines and accessible curriculum materials.
Trainee Teacher of Mathematics
Eastgate Community School | Leicester, United Kingdom | Sep 2019 – Aug 2020
Completed school-based teacher training placements across lower and upper secondary mathematics, developing lesson planning, classroom routines and reflective practice.
Why this works: Unlike “responsible for teaching”, the current role identifies Key Stages 3–5 and explains how formative assessment informs support and challenge. The trainee role remains a placement, rather than being presented as qualified employment.
Postgraduate Certificate in Education (Secondary Mathematics)
Northshire Institute of Education | Sep 2019 – Aug 2020
BSc (Hons) Mathematics
University of Wessex | Sep 2016 – Jun 2019
Why this works: The dated mathematics degree and secondary mathematics teacher training explain this candidate’s background. They are example facts, not a universal qualification route for every teaching role or country.
Teacher registration (fictional example)

Rivermill International School Learning Programme | Feb 2024
Mathematics Curriculum Leadership (fictional professional development)
Midlands Teaching Network | Oct 2023
Why this works: The registration and professional development entries are explicitly fictional. Record only your actual qualification or registration status, issuer and dates; this example does not verify credentials or establish a safeguarding qualification.
Mathematics curriculum planning · Assessment for learning · Differentiation · Formative feedback · Data-informed intervention · Sixth-form teaching · Pastoral communication · Collaborative resource design
Why this works: Curriculum planning, assessment and collaborative resource design connect to the roles and project. Prefer skills you can explain through classroom practice over a generic list of personal qualities.
Year 8 Numeracy Enrichment Programme
Sep 2023 – Jun 2024
Co-designed an optional lunchtime programme using puzzles, problem-solving and real-world contexts to build mathematical confidence and strengthen cross-curricular numeracy.
Why this works: “Co-designed” states a shared contribution, while lunchtime sessions, puzzles and real-world contexts describe the work. Building confidence is the programme’s purpose, not proof of a measured pupil outcome.
Choose the evidence that matches your next vacancy, then use the manual CV tailoring worksheet to decide what to foreground without adding unsupported claims.
For secondary teachers preparing school or agency applications, including international teacher CVs where a CV is accepted.
Teaching experience follows the profile, then education and teaching qualifications, registration and professional development, skills and selected projects. This keeps schools, subjects and training easy to locate.
Specify subjects, age ranges and curricula you actually taught. Add relevant professional development and school improvement or curriculum work you can describe from experience.
Use only documented teaching qualifications and any current registration or licence. Do not invent pupil outcomes or safeguarding credentials. Some schools and employers also require an application form, references or a supporting statement.
Keep school names, roles, dates, subjects and qualification terms clear in text. This supports human review and parsing, without promising universal ATS compatibility.
