Head of Humanities

This is a senior leadership opportunity to shape the vision and direction of Humanities across the school. You will lead a high-performing team in delivering an ambitious and engaging curriculum across Geography, History, and Religious Studies, ensuring consistently excellent teaching and outcomes. The role combines strategic oversight with hands-on leadership, including curriculum development, staff coaching, and maintaining the strong uptake and success of these subjects at GCSE. You will play a central role in fostering students' curiosity about the world, their understanding of the past, and their ability to think critically about complex moral and global issues.

At Perryfields, we provide the consistency that enables our subject leaders to thrive with autonomy and purpose. As Head of Humanities, you will join us at an exciting point in our journey.

In September 2028, we will move into a brand-new, state-of-the-art building, and you will play a key role in shaping dedicated Humanities spaces for Geography, History, and Religious Studies.
