What skills and experience we're looking for

We seek to appoint a well-qualified, enthusiastic and dynamic Subject Leader History & RS to join our team. We pride ourselves on our high expectations, commitment to ensuring pupil progress and high-quality teaching and learning provision for all. You will share these values and be able to enthuse and motivate our pupils with your passion and creative teaching, presence and personality. Applicants will be expected to demonstrate a proven track record of high-quality teaching, supporting pupils to reach their potential and a commitment to securing the highest standards.

Our History & RS department is staffed by well-established teachers who are passionate about supporting pupils in making the best progress within their subject area. You would be leading a department of experienced staff who collectively have a wealth of knowledge to drive forward innovative and cutting-edge humanities education for all.

We are happy to consider applications from candidates who have a purely History background, but are keen to take on the leadership of RS even if their experience in this area is minimal.
