Hitchin Boys’ School (HBS) is an outstanding and over-subscribed comprehensive school with a mixed sixth form, which forms part of the highly successful Hitchin Schools’ Consortium. We have a history that stretches back nearly 400 years, but embrace fresh thinking and a modern, vibrant curriculum. We have high expectations, excellent standards of behaviour and pride in our extra-curricular activities that lead to academically successful and well-rounded students, who are well equipped for life beyond school.
We are now seeking an enthusiastic Business & Economics specialist to teach at both Key Stage 4 and 5. Whilst QTS or QTLS are desirable, applications will also be considered from those with a business background who have teaching experience.

The department is forward-thinking and the recent roll-out of chrome books for students brings exciting and enhanced teaching and learning opportunities.
The successful candidate will be ambitious, dynamic and have a passion for their subject. They will have the ability to motivate all students and to bring new ideas as the school builds on its excellent status. Applications from those wishing to contribute to other aspects of school life outside the classroom are particularly welcome.
If this sounds like you and you are enthusiastic to gain experience in a high performing school, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

- A school with great traditions, excellent reputation but with a modern outlook
- A dedicated, well qualified and experienced staff who share the goal enshrined in our school motto “Per Ardua Ad Alta” – Striving for Excellence
