What skills and experience we're looking for
The History department is a strong, well respected and supportive department. It is forward thinking, consistently striving for excellence and has a history of strong examination results. The department is collaborative; planning is shared at KS3 and KS4 and resources are photocopied centrally. The department has an excellent KS3 Curriculum that supports students to develop their skills from KS2 and prepares students for study at GCSE. We have large cohorts at both KS4 and KS5. This is an exciting time to help lead the History department as we begin to implement changes to our KS4 curriculum.

Outside the formal curriculum we offer a wide range of extra-curricular activities and clubs. Our students are also very active in the community working alongside local and overseas charities to raise money for good causes.
