Liberton High School is a non-denominational secondary school with a roll of approximately 900 pupils, working in partnership with our associated primaries of Craigour Park, Gilmerton, Liberton and Prestonfield to serve our local community in South East Edinburgh. We have a rising roll which is projected to peak at approximately 1100 within the next four years. We are excited to be moving into a new, purpose-built Community Campus, which is due to be completed in February 2026. The leadership team comprises of the Head Teacher, three Depute Head Teachers, and a Business Manager. We have a complement of 65 teaching staff and 26 support staff.

We are a successful school, which is evident in our attainment journey over the past 5 years. Liberton High School is a place where everybody matters and our dedicated staff are committed to supporting our young people to achieve their potential. Due to the promotion of the previous substantive post holder, we are looking for a creative and innovative individual to join our Extended Leadership Team as Curriculum Leader of Mathematics & Numeracy.

The successful candidate will be able to use their skills, knowledge, and experience to provide leadership within this faculty.

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.
