Teacher of Humanities

We are seeking to appoint an innovative and enthusiastic Teacher of Humanities (History, Geography and RS) to join our successful and hardworking Humanities team.

The successful candidate will be a learner-centred practitioner who is committed to delivering high-quality teaching and learning, whilst working collaboratively with colleagues to support outstanding outcomes for all learners. This position offers an excellent opportunity for a dedicated teacher with strong subject knowledge and a secure understanding of the GCSE syllabi, together with the ability to teach across the full ability range.

Experience of teaching at Key Stage 5 would be advantageous, although it is not essential. We welcome applications from teachers with a specialism in either History or Geography, who have the enthusiasm, flexibility and willingness to teach both subjects at least to Key Stage 3 level.

You would be working as part of a supportive department, committed to academic excellence and fostering a passion for the Humanities.
